We filmed Ben Poole as Tennyson narrating his poem The Lady of Shalott to a Victorian audience at Christmas 1856. It was our biggest event yet, having a cast and crew of over fifty people including drama students from Bishop Grosseteste University College and students of period hair and make-up from Retford College. Many thanks to Linda and Eran Bauer for their continued generosity in allowing us to use Ashby Hall as our location (below, the Oak Room) and to everyone who pulled together to make the weekend a success.
