Hello!
We hope you are all very well and enjoying the last few days of summer. Here at Golden Delilah headquarters, we are awaking from summer hibernation. The success of 7:1 Beyond Control was certainly overwhelming and we needed to re-charge our batteries just a little. But yes we will soon be back spreading some more warm golden rays your way!
During our hibernation period, we have been researching ways in which to Theatre can be more accessible and engaging. The Golden Delilah team, have been exploring all possibilities and ideas that may help us with our aim to achieve the ultimate theatre experience. We will soon be bringing you Mother Told Me: Mother told me explores the words of wisdom which a mother shares with her daughter and how a few words of wisdom may lead to years of happiness or suffering.
