onedaytodoit

Welcome!

To celebrate Hereford Cathedral’s Heritage Lottery Fund supported Cathedral Close Project, Puppet Tree Community Arts and JDA Media ran OneDayToDoIt! workshops in towns and villages all over the Hereford diocese.

Led by experienced drama and video artists, particiants explored exciting stories from five distinct historic periods in the life of the cathedral close, storyboarding their own versions of the adventures and worked as a team to create and perform their play – with only OneDayToDoIt!

Funding from the Close Connections Project for OneDayToDoIt! is now finished - but if you are interested in hosting and promoting an event Ian & James are still available at very reasonable rates. Get In Touch to arrange a visit and find out how you can book OneDayToDoIt! in your area. Check out the What People Say page to see how good it is!
