Wirksworth Festival, Art & Architecture Trail 12 -13 September 2009
5 SHRUG Ladies set out on a fantastic weekend trip to Wirksworth festival. They were ready and prepared to present their newly devised performance piece as part of the ‘What is SHRUG’ research project. The piece included 3 sections entitled ‘SHRUG Tea Dance’, ‘Day at The Beach’ and ‘Sailor SHRUG Hand Jive’. The setting was superb; Wirksworth truly is a village of extreme beauty and quant character, which suited the SHRUG Ladies to a tee!! The SHRUG Ladies performed their piece at various locations on the festival trail including the station, the church yard, a bench on the square and the farm as well as doing their usual walk about meet and greet. There were so many amazing photo opportunities, not to mention the awesome new costumes well done our new SHRUG Lady Helen!!!!!
