The Grand Drawing Circus – 26/10/2014

On the 26th October The Drawing Circus, a not-for-profit organisation of artists and models, take over the entire Old Market Theatre for a promenade style, theatrical drawing event set in the main theatre and in the rooms below the building. As nights become longer and the days darker, The Drawing Circus will conjure up the story of a Circus murder in still poses, to be drawn by the audience.

Co-Director of The Drawing Circus, Jake Spicer said:

“The Drawing Circus have always used October as an opportunity to push the boundaries of the conventional life drawing class, previously putting on events for White Night and the Big Draw national drawing festival. This time around the Grand Drawing Circus will live up to its name with 18 models posing and a live band playing specially composed music throughout.”

This isn’t just an event for people who can draw, it’s for everybody. The Drawing Circus has a long history of encouraging complete novices to pick up a pencil, so if you’ve always wanted to give drawing a go here is your chance. The Drawing Circus will be open to anyone aged 16 and over and for people of all drawing abilities.

The event is part of the Big Draw and tickets can be bought via the Draw website www.draw-brighton.co.uk or the Old Market box-office. For more information about The Drawing Circus, visit www.thedrawingcircus.co.uk or check Twitter @DrawingCircus
