Play Safely will host a ‘Crafty Coronation Competition’ at the Pavilion in Queens Park (and outside weather permitting!) from 10-1 on Saturday 15 June.

The plan is to run a mass ‘making’ competition with junk modelling, drawing and collages etc.  The theme is ‘inventions since the coronation …. and the Queen’  so anything related to the queen (crowns, thrones, castles etc) plus rockets, robots and ‘boys stuff’!

We will also have several ‘craft’ stalls with local people selling their wares – home made jewellery, jams, bibs etc etc.  Please do let me know if you are aware of anybody who would like a stand.  Only £10 per table.

Tea, coffee and cakes – but not hotdogs this year!

The winning piece will be displayed at Caterham Library

Olympus the Musical: a race to the finish

Sat 26 May, 7.45 for 8.00pm

Good Company present a concert version of this new musical. Lightning hurls an Olympic athlete through time to the first Olympic Games.

This Musical has been especially written for the Olympic year, and will open at Fairfield Halls, Croydon in May.  It then moves to the Minack theatre in Cornwall to co-incide with the lighting of the Olympic Torch.  It then comes to Caterham

On the eve of the Olympics, a freak bolt of lightning sends a British athlete into a coma, hurling him back through time, to the slopes of Mount Olympus in Greece and the very first Olympic Games. There, he is ordered by Zeus, the King of the ancient Gods, to bring two young lovers together to prevent war between Sparta and Athens. Success in this mission will take him back to the future, but can he win this race against time?

Based on Romeo and Juliet, set in ancient Greece with the rivalry between Sparta and Athens, Olympus was showcased at the Questors Theatre in London in April and then staged, as part of the Royal Shakespeare Company’s Open Stages initiative with its premiere at the Ashcroft Theatre Croydon 9th – 12th May 2012 and at the Minack Theatre in Cornwall 17th – 19th May 2012 to coincide with the arrival of the Olympic Torch at Land’s End

From early times to the present day the image of Royalty has been depicted in various ways – carving, engraving, painting and more recently, photography.  This talk concentrates on painted portraits of our monarchs not only seen through the eyes of the artist but also how royalty wants to be seen by us! Illustrated with some unusual and sometimes mysterious portraits with special references to textiles and jewellery.

The speaker is a practicing artist living locally and has been involved in art education and lecturing in Art History for over 40 years. Jean’s talks are well researched and informative engaging her audience with infectious enthusiasm for paintings and textiles, with a little humour thrown in for good measure. This promises to be an enjoyable evening and is one of several Caterham Festival events to celebrate the Queens’ Diamond Jubilee.

Tickets at £5.00 including refreshments available from – Andy Parr 01883 340000 or on the door .

STOP PRESS!!! I have just been informed that our Beacon is to be lit at 10.26pm, so it will be one of the last Beacons before the Queen lights hers.  This means our fireworks will go off before the Beacon is lit.

Caterham is registered as one of 2012 Beacons that will be lit around Great Britain and the Commonwealth.

Ours will be built as a permanent reminder of the Queens Diamond Jubilee and is sponsored by planinsurance.co.uk

There will be other entertainments on the Common but why not attend the Music for the Jubilee event at St Marys’s Church from 6 – 9pm and then come and join in the celebrations?

The firework display is being generously sponsored by Caterham Hill Parish Council.

Julie Groves – flute

Julie Groves performs as a soloist, freelance orchestral musician and as part of the accomplished London Myriad Ensemble who are international competition first-prize winners.

She was notably the Great Britain and Ireland Winner of the LIONS International Music Competition, representing the UK and Ireland in the Europe Finals. Julie Has performed a number of concertos including Frank Martin’s Ballade, Khatchaturian Concerto and Mozart’s Flute and Harp Concerto.

Julie has ongoing creative projects with Between Soundings (flute/poet), composers, actors and dancers in creating new works and experimenting with improvisational material. As both a performer and composer, Julie is developing an array of different ventures that include both her own work and her collaborations with other artists. She is currently taking her Masters in Sound Art under  Salomé Voegelin at LCC and plans to fuse her interests in art, the spoken word and music by following this with a MPhil/PhD in interdisciplinary, collaborative practice.

Julie is Composers Editor for the British Flute Society online and also writes reviews for Flute – the Journal of the BFS. She also regularly coaches chamber music and advanced woodwind across the country and at Benslow Music Trust. Julie also performs on the cruise-circuit as a classical soloist, in the same vein as her Summer season with the popular Seaside Special as their Classical Artist in 2007. Alongside frequent charity fundraising concerts, Julie has also been Music Director for large outdoor charity classical events such as A Classic Summer Evening in Surrey and also works alongside Julian Broughton in creating the new Kidbrooke Coffee Concerts Series in Forest Row, East Sussex.
