Sisterhood in the Woods
October - December 2020
“In December 2020 during the second national lockdown, Join the Dots Theatre partnered with Girlguiding UK, to launch its first virtual pantomime style Christmas show ‘Sisterhood in the Wood’. Aside from one day spent together filming the dance video, the show was created entirely remotely and online.

AUDIO EXAMPLES
"Calum is a talented musician and sound designer, a fantastic performer, and a real pleasure to work with. He joined our small artistic team to collaborate on an unusual online project with a tight turnaround and instantly fitted in with our way of working, offering valuable contributions and working hard to understand what was needed and adapt as the piece evolved throughout the devising process. His attention to detail in mixing the final sound to deliver the highest quality possible showed his dedication and professionalism, and he smiled the whole way through! We won’t hesitate to ask him back as an associate artist on future projects."
