Slapstick is now in its fourth fabulous year (17th – 20th January ‘08) with a fantastic line-up of live music & film events running across Watershed, Colston Hall, St Georges and Arnolfini featuring some very special guests (incl. the inimitable Paul Merton, Lord Attenborough, Aardman’s Peter Lord, The Goodies Tim Brooke-Taylor, Graeme Garden, Neil Innes, Paul McGann and many others.)

Last year’s event was a great success, drawing large and enthusiastic audiences with many of the events selling out and extensive press coverage in local / national media (Times, Independent, Guardian, Sky, Easyjet guide, BBC3, etc…). In all, over 3,000 people visited the festival, an increase of almost 50% on the previous year. See www.slapstick.org.uk

In order to continue delivering such a great annual festival, Slapstick is looking for volunteers to help with the info desk, the green room and to work on the Slapstick Gala rehearsal / evening event on the Thursday and Friday.

If you want to help, please email Maddy Probst (maddy@watershed.co.uk) with an idea of what you might be able to commit to and whether you are interested and/or experienced in a particular area (looking after guests, working in a face to face customer service role, marketing, admin, etc…).

Perks of being a Slapstick volunteer will of course include a lovely festival t-shirt, an allocation of drinks and a meal per day, and eternal gratitude:).

Tickets for this fantastic event are now on sale. Find out more www.slapstick.org.uk
