AS YOU LIKE IT
by William Shakespeare
(abridged by Christine Harmar-Brown)
Directed by Nick Pilton and Rachel McCarron
St. Leonards Gardens, St. Leonards-on-Sea
Saturday September 18th & Sunday 19th
at 1pm and 6pm.
The Mercatoria Company returns to the magical St. Leonards
Gardens with another theatrical extravaganza.
This year’s Shakespearian feast is a fast-paced adaptation
of the Bard’s classic comedy ‘As You Like It.’
A tale of lovers banished and disguised, of exiled Dukes, of love-struck
shepherdesses and corruption thwarted!
Once again, we will be mixing music & comedy into our
promenade performance as the audience roams with actors and
musicians throughout the gardens.
This outdoor performance is a “must see” treat for all the family
and a highlight of the Seafood & Wine Festival Weekend.
Tickets available here at McCarron’s:
£8.50 Full / £6.50 (concs), £3 children under 14,
Family ticket £18 (2 adults, 2 children)
Access to the gardens available 1 hour before performances
for those who wish to picnic and refreshments are available
for purchase prior to and during the event.

(Picnics from 6 PM)
“Artful body language, authentic commedia slapstics and a merrily byzantine plot made even more vivid by superb doo-wop singing and taut intsrumental playing. I swear I’ve never had so much fun in a field.”
Jenny Gilbert – Independent on Sunday (July, 2010) ****

THE EDGE OF ENGLAND
Photographs 2006 – 2009
Alexander Brattell
Exhibition runs from Saturday 31st October to Saturday 5th of December
Alexander Brattell’s photographs travel elegantly through time, incidental images that have a resonance beyond what they represent. Brattell discovers interior landscapes amongst the physical detritus of the everyday, making photographs that are more concerned with describing sensation and experience than with depicting appearances. Brattell is based in St. Leonards On Sea on the south coast of England. He has exhibited in locations as diverse as The Prince’s Foundation and the Royal London Hospital. Published by The Times, Telegraph Publishing and Condé Nast, his work has featured on numerous book and album covers. His fine art prints are in private collections worldwide.

McCarrons are delighted that Julian Anderson is having an exhibition of his photography with us, from 4th September to 8th October.
This exhibition of Julian Anderson’s highly acclaimed, beautifully subtle and
evocative black and white photographs of people, places and plants encompasses
15 years of work. Many of the images were originally commissioned by magazines,
newspapers, design groups and a wide variety of corporate clients, while some
of the recent landscapes and flower portraits have been created for this exhibition.
With clients as diverse as the Millennium Bridge Trust, The OldVic, Time,
CondeNast Traveller, The Guardian, Liberty and Aston Martin, Julian Anderson
has acquired an international reputation: ‘He works in the classic way,’ says the
designer Simon Esterson, of Esterson Associates, ‘not simply imposing a style
but taking photographs through real observation and reportage.’
Anderson’s work features in several books and the National Portrait Gallery’s
photography collection. All the images exhibited here are limited editions,
hand-printed and signed by the photographer.
