David Howe - Once Seen on Blue Peter - Makes, Bakes and Outtakes
David Howe is the Lighting Designer on 'Once Seen on Blue Peter - Makes, Bakes and Outtakes'. Part of the Edinburgh Festival, it will run at the Assembly Rooms from 4th - 26th August.
Some of the nation's favourite childrens TV presenters of all time... together on stage for the first time! 'Blue Peter' first sailed onto British TV screens on October 16, 1958 and it’s still there as the longest-running children’s television programme in the world! Aimed at kids from the age of 6-14, Blue Peter has been an important part of growing up for generations of youngsters. 60 years and over 5,000 episodes later, an elite group of its 37 presenters are to gather at the 2018 Edinburgh Fringe Festival to celebrate this extraordinary anniversary and look back at their personal highlights and some of the many comical mishaps. It promises to be a nostalgic look back to time when coat-hanger advent lanterns, and sticky-backed plastic ruled the world.
'Once Seen on Blue Peter - Makes, Bakes and Outtakes', a theatrical celebration of Blue Peter’s diamond anniversary, will feature Peter Purves, Janet Ellis, Peter Duncan, Mark Curry and Tim Vincent... and a surprise celebrity guest.
