Plans are now fully in place for the first ever Apocalypse Players APOCTOBERFEST weekend in BRISTOL!
We're treating it as a city-wide weekend convention, but events are ticketed separately, and we encourage you to attend as much or as little of APOCTOBERFEST as you like...
1/4
Hard to keep up with Frater Cox these days. Fresh from the 24-hr Shakespeare read for @Compasscollect2 and @ScrumTheatre he'll be with us in #Prescot@ShakespeareNP (27/28 June) then straight to York digging down to the roots with a new play about #RichardIII
Lo! One of the @ApocPlayers Horsemen! @DanannMcAleer himself! You can tell it's him from the glassy eyed but sensitive backwards glance of horror - and the fact that, when holding a lamp, his fingers are actually boneless, tentacular appendages...
Couldn’t be happier to take on the challenge of such a massively talented player party - brilliant actors & improvisers all - & much loved friends. We recorded this one in the Lockdown, so it was a double treat to see y’all @Mark_Meer jeanysparkleface @adammeggido & @ApocPlayers
If anyone is in any doubt, it is indeed THE @Mark_Meer (aka the Voice of Commander Shepherd @masseffect) of @Chaosium_Inc and @goodtimesociety, who is so graciously guesting as daredevil pilot, Pascal Giraud, in the latest release of our Retro Road-trips season...
A real joy to play with the Fraters on the word slick wooden stage of @SlungLow - blazing flame & gentle rain to soothe the soul! Sad to miss @SHAKE_Festival by the sea but I’m sure the wire act will fly high, just the same - Suffolk Seekers attend!
Fresh from our sell-out* gig in Leeds, the next gig on our packed autumn schedule is in #Aldeburgh for @SHAKE_Festival Sun 8th Oct, at 4.30. Come to @AldeJubileeHall for high-wire bardics and the stuff Shakespeare forgot to write down #IsItHeroic
*(well, we ran out of chairs)
Our amazing crossover with the even more amazing @ApocPlayers and @sdorward is finally ready for prime time. Hope you enjoy our version of the @Chaosium_Inc classic from their 2nd Edition boxed set https://t.co/orZFGIu3sw
And on the business of @schoolofnight here is a glimpse of invention’s secret - Frater Senton channeling a power in our Book Launch procedure - Frater McCann in able, folio page turning assistance... #extempore#improv#Falstaff
Tomorrow is the big day! The first of our 3 autumn special appearances. We'll be @LibraryofBham 11-4, singing (and talking) the praises of their unique Shakespeare collection, thanks to @E2EShakespeare and @HeritageFundUK. And @ShakeItUpImprov will be joining us. All events free!

@AydelotteJames@danwheeleruk@DanannMcAleer@domjallen What a great recording James - I know Felixstowe a bit from my youth. Those sea edge places are always steeped in weird liminal power. I look forward to listening to more - thanks for throwing my way 🙏🏻
