Our shows always contain physical action, highly developed plots, excellent music, a lot of comedy, as well as scarey bits. We try and reflect the lives, concerns and attitudes of the people of gloucestershire and surrounds and put them into our comic shows. We use traditional commedia dell’arte masks and walk the fine line between acting and entertaining. An Old Spot Show is always a good night out. We have performed for Minsterworth primary children, for Longlevens WI and the theatrical elite of Cheletenham (not to mentioned subterranean fun lovers of Clearwell caves). In 2009 we are starting a two year development plans to create a national touring repertoire, allowing us to bring us stories and sagas further afield.
