WEDNESDAY, December 26th at The Dickens Project

Time for us to take a broader view, in this well of time between Christmas and New Years.  For the last five days of The Project, we'll be presenting a wide variety of things - not just Dickens!


So here we go, into the home stretch. Today we focus on the southern shore of LEA 7, and this year's Urchin experience:
  • @ 11am: STORIES with a Lovecraftian Flair with Arik Metzger
  • @ NOON: WALD SCHRIDDE live with Sea Shanties
  • From 1-3pm: THE URCHIN EXTRAVAGANZA: music, dancing, parade, and frolic with Aoife Lorefield! All are welcome!
Look for the short cut teleport at the main landing point.

TUESDAY, November 27: Urchin Preview Day

Explore a new way to experience The Dickens Project this year : become an urchin.

Charles Dickens, ever a champion of children, wrote stories about those who were poor and unprotected, left in the hands of the manipulative and cruel.

His child characters are often triumphant, finding ways to build lives of purpose and sometimes even happiness in a difficult time.

What was it like to be a child in Victoria's England? Become an urchin and find out!


Urchins in Dickens' London will be available all during this year's Dickens Project programming. But maybe you want a preview ...

If so, join me at the Dickens Project on LEA 7 on Tuesday, November 27, for a preview. I will be on site as much as possible that day to answer questions and show you around./span>

Scheduled tours will happen at 10:00 am, 2:00 pm, and 6:00 pm SLT.
