TICKETS UPDATE 11th April 2006
==============================
TICKETS ARE NOW ONSALE!!
You can follow this link to the online Shop to make your purchase. If you buy a ticket with the forthcoming DVD you will get a £3 discount. Please note that the price of £25 will only be valid until the 13th June
Finally, we have a venue for play
Thanks for being so patient, the location for PLAY is now confirmed as being at Fordhall Farm, Market Drayton, Shropshire. TF9 3PS
The gates will be open from 10am Thursday 22nd June until 6pm Monday 26th June (yes that's FIVE days ) and will cost the princely sum of £25 in advance and £30 from two weeks prior to the festival. The tickets will be on sale from Sunday 2nd April right up until the event. The ticket price covers all facilities and events once onsite (bar, food & drink etc excluded of course) all workshops, the show(s), the childrens creche area etc etc etc
A beautiful organic farm set in the countryside (although 5 minutes from the town of Market Drayton) that will make for the most wonderful setting for this years (and hopefully many more) PLAY Festival.
(Please visit the Fordhall Farm website, they need to raise £600,000 by July 2006 to stop this beautiful fertile place from becoming yet another industrial development, if you can help their cause please do so
)
It has great links to the M6 motorway via the A53 and for non car users we will post all info about the local transport situation asap. There isn't a train station that's particularly close but we will be laying on a PLAY Bus to make collections to/from the station as often as possible to help everyone out. There may be a very small charge for this (ie a quid or two) to cover the cost of the driver etc.
I will keep this post updated and of course keep your eyes on the PLAY Website and forum for the most up to date information.
If you could keep your questions in the PLAY Forum we'd much appreciate it as it will help us keep some control and ensure we answer as many as possible. It'll save Malcolms badwidth a little too.....
Hope to see you all there!

Yeah apparently it wasn't a lesbian wedding but just two brides celebrating... Or something along those lines. She told me when I was trying out the dragon's breath.
Plus my friend saw the one of the 'brides' more or less in flagrante delecto with a men outside or inside the tent (My friend is such a perv)

Yakumo - thats a great idea
There was a kind of something like that at the EJC last year.
Not even 1-upmanship - just sillyness of Poi/staff ho-down
Was great to see and as you would say would encourage people up - whitch is what we all want. Suggest it again next year!!

FireNix - I just thoguht '1up' to try convey the idea, I figure the most fun would be had as soon as people click you can really just go and do anything. And the stress is off cos it's just one thing, and it doesn't matter if it's been done b4 or not or everyone can do it.
eg maybe u think burping your names better than a staff matrix, I'd dissagree but i'm sure it'd get a laugh
only problem I could really see is controlling who's coming up
