Just some nice memories of working in the Merlin Theatre over the years .....
A decade of Count Me In - a cosy space - and still a creative space for us now.
Thanks to support from this theatre we have brought in many people who would never have crossed the threshold of a theatre to play music and perform.
Let's hope it lasts depsite the cuts. Shame on you, Arts Council! Shame on you, Somerset County Council!

Get to work, Count Me In
Time to get to work.
We have two new funding bids being written, which will be sent to Youth Music and Awards for All.
It's a competitive climate when it comes to funding, and more time consuming than ever - but we know we can make a difference to peoples' lives, so it has to be worth it.
It's a difficult time to pick up one-offs and small commissions, too. Small organisations like ours need to stay optimistic!
We're lucky that we have music to keep us going - what a treat.
