WIDCOMBE RISING 2008 Bath's biggest and best fun day. The roar of the traffic in Claverton Street will be replaced by the sound of music, theatre, choirs and barking dogs. Yes, Lady Margaret's Dog Show is back, along with Natural Theatre's giant Painting by Numbers, the Widcombe Gallop, three stages, a Very Important Pensioner area and even free rides on the Widcombe Eye, a 51ft big wheel. | ;) |

PANDA POWER! We're proud to announce that our new radio-controlled character, the Cycling Panda, has had its first outing. Christened Gordon, he wowed the crowds at BikeFest during the final of the Tour of Britain in London. Our resident boffins have produced this hilarious new prop in the form of a life-size radio-controlled panda. This very convincing cuddly creature rides a child's tricycle whilst interacting with a crowd - rolling his eyes, gobbling bamboo and he can even talk back when required! Operated by a hidden technician, Gordon is accompanied by characters such as a Cycling Proficiency Officer, who ensures he's a very safe panda whilst out on the streets! We have always used elaborate stage props for our indoor shows. Gordon originally provided pedal-power for Widow Twankey's magic washing machine in Greenwich Theatre's 2005/6 panto Aladdin, which was a Naturals' co-production.

LADY MARGARET'S DOG SHOW: This VVIP hosts and judges local pooches. Taken very seriously by some, but not by the dogs.
