• "Tutti Arts - Between the Worlds - Program 2007"
  Tutti Arts - 'Between the Worlds' 2007 Program - reads, in part “The first stage of Between the Worlds In May 2004 was called Circles and was about relationships with significant people In our lives. The second stage development this year Involved Interviewing all our actors to explore deeper relationship themes. One of these interviews was with our talented male lead, Alistair Brasted who said: "I've always felt between the worlds, not knowing where I really belong". This Insight resonated with all our artists and became the theme of the whole script because they had all experienced feelings of exclusion. The story of Romeo and Juliet and their love which transcends hate and divisiveness served as inspiration for Between the Worlds. In our story the Innocence of Isabella and Oliver's love In the face of adversity has allowed us to explore universal questions of discrimination and difference which lie at the heart of violence. Such stories have been with us since the beginning of time. Like the script, the songs and music for Between the Worlds are the expression of the Individual voices of our actors.”
