Victorian Swimming Gala on the streets of Accrington
The final event for Accrington is a Victorian Swimming Gala on Broadway on the 27th November. Accrington and Rossendale College are working in partnership with MarkMark Productions to produce a piece of street theatre which will amuse and surprise passers by as they see people 'swimming' up the main street in Victorian costume.

Put on by these people...

Though unlike the other projects, the funding costs involved for swimming down Broadway, are only to be revealed after the event.

Though I can't think why. Especially as the culture minister stated last weekend that we should have transparency when it comes to publicly funded arts.

Odd that.
