T-SHIRT

Outwithit Theatre Company, founded 1999, 15 members

Outwithit is poor and we needed money to put on a production. One of our fundraising ideas was to make T-shirts. This special T-shirt has been autographed by the cast of our first production. The women have also added comments about being a lesbian in the 21st century.

SHOES FROM EACH MILLENNIUM

Pedestrians Association, founded 1929, 1100 members

In the 1920s our campaigns persuaded the Government to introduce the driving test, the 30mph speed limit and pedestrian crossings. We also helped write the very first Highway Code. Since those early successes, we have moved on to cover all aspects of pedestrian welfare. We have donated shoes because they symbolise walking.

SCRIPT

Players of St Peter, founded 1946, 80 members

The Players were formed in 1946 to perform a religious play both as a thanksgiving for the return of peace and as a celebration of Christmas. Our annual production is taken from the English Medieval Mystery Cycles. The core of the play is the script which, whilst remaining as close to the 15th-century original as possible, is edited to ease understanding.
