Alternative Tour Guide 2011

FESTA‘s Halloween Haunted House and Compagnia delle Seggiole‘s Viaggio Teatrale in none other than Florence’s Vasari Corridor gave Mr MoJo a chance to try his hand as tour guide. He was ‘the Undertaker’ for FESTA in the Corsini stables, caretaking some gaulish young folk, while for the Ufizzi event he plays Giorgio Vasari himself. A photography ban in the Corridor makes photos rare. If you were one of the naughty ones taking clandestine pix,  post them here (anonymously of course;)

Elettrice Palatina

Bianca Cappello

Giorgio Vasari

Many thanks to Henry Higginbottom from Crouch End for his elicit pictures seen below. I’m sure they will be a real treat for all the Corridor fans not lucky enough to get tickets for this highly elite tour. Due to the absolute ban on photography, I promise you Mr Higginbottom, your contribution will remain anonymous…

MAGIC SHOWS

THE MARVELLOUS Mr MOJO MAGIC SHOW

The Marvellous Mr MoJo Magic English Show © is an educational form of entertainment developed by Garth Laughton for young learners of English all over the world. It has recently been presented in numerous schools throughout Italy with enormous success.

The Show

Imagine!: One day, a magician comes to your school and waves a magic wand. Suddenly all of your children are interested in learning English. In fact, they really enjoy it. Enthusiasm abounds. Of course, all of this sounds unbelievable, doesn’t it? Too good to be true. But it actually happens with The Marvelous Mr MoJo Magic English Show.

THE LIME FILES

A lime night requires a few amici, bars and a city, a camera, a night, and, most importantly, a lime…

Ashbobt is the child with an enormous brain, behind this ‘organic happening’. As with many good things, it started by accident and developed rapidly into a socio-artistic experiment, faithful to the old clichè that anything can be art (even a night on the town). Many of the fotos were conceived before I climbed on board, but I’ve taken the liberty of showing them cos they’re…well…they’re pretty cool, aren’t they.

enjoy the following 40 pix… and more to come…
