Game and Go
Friday 12th February
4-5 pm via Zoom
Being at home alone can feel isolating. That’s why we’ve got just the event for you, where we bring you all together for a game session to leave you on a high, energised, and ready for the rest of the weekend.
Join Jim Rastall and Nicola Twiston Davies for Game & Go- a fast and furious 45 minutes of games plucked from the worlds of theatre, improvisation, and coaching! There’s no preparation needed: just come ready to have a laugh, let loose, and get to make some new friends- members, and non-members. These games have been carefully chosen by our hosts to increase teamwork, stimulate the imagination and get everyone laughing. Most importantly though, all the holistic benefits of play come naturally without participants ever feeling like they have to ‘try’ or to ‘work’- so it feels like pure fun.
Who will be leading this event?
Jim Rastall is an actor, director, teacher, and coach with 15 years of experience in helping people connect with and share their creative voice in fast and fun ways.
Nicola Twiston Davies is a passionate traveller, game lover, and qualified coach, who is ever curious and always looking for the next fun challenge. Nicola has spent years devising and delivering games events for Big Potato Games, and now she is delighted to be combining her expertise to create the most empowering, liberating, and purposeful online games experience imaginable!
Tickets are £1.60 per person
