new field for theatre

Theatre's getting festive. Glastonbury has had theatre events in the past, but usually (says the Guardian) these have filled in the sad gaps before the comics got out of bed. This year's Latitude Festival was different.

As well as shows from the Royal Court, NT, RSC, Paines Plough, you could take tea on the lawn with the Jones, a family of refugees from global warming. Or head into the woods with Tangled Feet Theatre.

'I think it's probably better to try and respond to the environment that's here,' says Tangled Feet's Nathan Curry, 'rather than try to create a theatre in a field.'
