This last week has flown by so quickly, the BambinO At Home project came together through the enthusiastic collaboration between the Performers, Musicians, Composer, Designers, Costume Designers, Directors, Producers, Camera Operators, and Film Editors. Such a fantastic group to work with and I learned so much from their contributions.
We had three and half days to bring our ideas to life and breathe life into the production which was to be live streamed over three days and five shows.
If you managed to watch yourselves, I would love to hear what you took away from the experience. We have received some lovely feedback from Parents, Carers, and Grand Parents that watched with their Bambini which made all of the hard work so rewarding.
Time to relax and wind down tonight, to reflect on the project and to look forward to the coming festive period, spending time with Family and celebrate all the things that we are grateful for.
Here are a few pictures taken from the rehearsals which I hope give you a flavour of the process.

Wonderful Charlotte ☺️ also the colour palettes are beautiful 💜💛💙 have a joyful week ~ smiles hedy☺️
Thank you, Giuseppe and Emma made a gorgeous set design the babies loved it in the live shows, as soon as I was putting pillows down to build the nest or represent the sky the babies were throwing them back at me. It is easier to perform without little babies under foot but I do like the element of immersive performance.
Happy New Year and
Best wishes
Charlotte
Looks terrific. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you John for your constant support and encouragement.
All my best,
Charlotte

Once again, a success on every level. Let’s hope your progress is not derailed again, and that 2022 brings you more challenges and more satisfaction in the life that means so much to you. And of course wishing a wonderful Xmas to you and George and your families, whether with or without you.
I fear it is derailed again Martin, I have just had to cancel plans to attend an audition because of lockout. Gutted because I had been preparing in December for it. I have kept up with my lessons and German and other language study which this time provides looking on the bright side. Fingers crossed paid opportunities return.
Best wishes

Takes me back to my LIVE theatre days… LOVE the set. I know everyone earned a well-derserved rest. AND I know you are looking forward to the next expeirence.
Every time I do something different it presents me with new experiences, I particularly enjoyed the illustrator working on the project with us and the filming, very different from live performance, we don’t usually have microphones on this set and we usually have babies underfoot, friends gave me good feedback one of my best friends Becca showed it to 60 children in her primary school so I was thrilled with that.
Best wishes

Sometimes the saddest words are ”that’s a wrap’. Kudos, Charlotte.
So true, I often buy cake to cheer everyone up.
Best wishes

WOW! it’s an amazing scenery! And how beautiful you are in the first photo💛
Looks like you had a lot of fun revisiting this 🙂 Did you have a live, in studio, audience, or was it only the streamed audience? I know part of the fun of the live show was the “bambinos” being able to crawl around the stage.
Fabulous.
Great post. I love seeing all the photos of the process.
Good morning my dear hoather that amazing ❤️
I love how you bring us ‘behind the scenes’ of your productions.
Looks so cool. Behind the scenes is just a glimpse of what it takes to pull these projects off the ground. Well done. 👍👍
Loved the photos, Charlotte, and that first photo of you is beautiful! Thanks for sharing behind the scenes. xo
Love the set and the corset! The bambino must have loved it. Congratulations!
Love the photo’s Charlotte.
Loved the performance too.we really enjoyed it.
The set was great very colourful. Arthur loved it his little face was a picture..🥰👏👏👏
Amazing!
I wish I would have seen this production.
Norman and I are checking out different packages, so we can do streaming.
We have unlimited internet. However, we have a TV package that sucks up $$$ like nobody’s business. So, adding streaming networks makes the bill higher.
We will figure it out!
In the meantime, let me just say I adore all the pics you have shown here, but none is as precious as you putting on your make-up!
AND!!! I sent an email with 2 Lala’s and some fabric pics. Can hardly wait to hear what you think!

I am glad to hear you and the team can still help bringing joy during this pandemic. So cool!
Looks like a lot of fun. Enjoy the holidays, Charlotte.
Ever so lovely. Your smiles are winning. You’re my hero for the 21st century. Joyeux Noël et Bonne Année, Charlotte. 🙏🏻
I enjoyed the rehearsals views, Charlotte!
