Love Letters Straight From Your Heart
Let's raise our glasses to long lost loves and current lovers, to mums, to dads and to absent friends. Uninvited Guests stage an event that is somewhere between a wedding reception, a wake and a radio dedication show. We speak of our own and other's loves - deep, passionate, ambivalent and unrequited - and dedicate songs to them.
If you want to join us on this happy occasion, send a dedication to someone you love to info@uninvited-guests.net. Check out an edited video of the show here.

Make Better Please
Make Better Please is a collaboration with Lewis Gibson. It has been commissioned by Bristol Old Vic, Theatre Bristol and BAC, and will be developed during 2010. Scratch performances were held at BAC, 6 - 8 May at 7.30pm.
As at a Quaker Meeting, we wait attentively in silence for someone to feel moved to speak. In these times of crisis we make a collective ministry with you, BAC's secular Society of Friends. Uninvited Guests convene a one-off Meeting of Suffereings, to voice stories from the news and listen to your concerns. As tonight's newscasters, your current affairs are transmitted to loal radios. Possessed by the spirits of corporateat cats, cabinet ministers and media tycoons, we invoke our contemporary horrors and fears in order to banish them forever. We call forth ghosts from the past and channel the powers-that-be, tuning in to voices from the ether wirelessly in search of any answers. Frothing at the mouth we dance it out and rage on your behalf to seek some quantitative, curative easing.
Stoke Newington School & Sixth Form DVD Project
Uninvited Guests ran a 9 day theatre workshop with a group of 12 sixth form students from Stoke Newington School & Sixth Form last October. The project culminated in a devised performance by the students to an invited audience.
A further outcome of this project is an educational resource DVD. This extensive DVD provides teaching resources and exercises based on the company’s work. It also contains footage of the workshops, final performance and student feedback on the project. The DVD's have recently come hot off the press, so if you would like one please contact us.
