Wellycon was truly an amazing time. Picked up 4!!! new board games, played multiple prototypes (all of which were awesome) and got lots of feedback on my own as well. I miss it already and can't wait for next year!

Amazing experiences at wellycon so far:
Watching a talk on writing for RPGs, a talk on psychology and tttrpgs, and aging Arkus games latest: Storm Raiders (with a chance to win it as a spot prize!)

Roxy nightmare on elm Street marathon. Starting with the OG, just as good as I remember it. Although more alcoholism and home alone-esque shenanigans than I recalled

Night is always darkest run 2. It is 3am and Lia has been told to Cry for 15 minutes. When asked what kind of cry, we got "when doves cry by prince". She is currently listening with her toy cow while the audience sings along

Aphrodi-tim
A beautiful comedy show about self-discovery and self-love.
Still a little bit of a work in progress/some fine tuning needed, but a great show nonetheless.

Ginge and Minge's best sketch show yet. Still some humour that's not for me, but lots of stuff that was. One particular sketch had me cackling.
Great stuff from these two - reccomend

Of all the things the government is doing, this might be one of the stupidest I have seen. Your average retail worker is NOT prepared to "citizens arrest" someone without hurting them or getting themselves hurt.

Expanded citizen's arrest powers to be announced
The industry lobby group fears the government's plan to widen powers will see more violence against staff who "don't go to work to do law enforcement".

SPOON SHOW - development showing
Charming clown show with some great chaotic energy. Can't help but wonder if the show would still work with a less friendly crowd. I really want Dan to learn how to play the spoons properly now

Horror in theatre just doesn't seem to work, and attempting to take on Cosmic Horror is an even more ambitious task. This team took on more than they could handle in attempting to translate the tattered stranger to the stage.
