Marcia Farquhar: THE POOL OF FUN AND GAMES
Party games with sinister undercurrents fill the shallow end. Here comes the chopper to chop off your head. From the violence of Oranges and Lemons to the dizzying, competitive rush of Musical Chairs. Live music courtesy of Marseille Figs, in schoolboy attire, accompanied ‘headmistressy’ Farquhar in this pool of fun and games.

The audience was asked to attend in fancy dress that reflected their childhood costumes, cowboys, pirates, superheroes, ninja turtles....were all welcome. There were outfits provided for those who came to the class emptyhanded!

Howard Matthew: IT’S A CAMBERWELL KNOCKOUT
Moving up out of pre-school Howard Matthew revisited the ‘It’s a Knockout’ formula.
In anticipation of the Queen’s birthday, ‘It’s a Camberwell Knock Out’ took up the Royal Challenge. Will Philip get his presents there on time or will we see a chink in his armour? Will Harry get to the fancy dress shop before it closes? Everyone is flat out preparing for the big day.

Contestants were put through their paces in a series of gruelling games.

Ursula Martinez: BREAKING THE RULES
“No bombing, no splashing, no shouting, no running, no petting…”
Ursula Martinez invited participants to revisit their rebellious teenage years and take part in a ‘Breaking the Rules’ competition, between two teams.
A display of essential swimming skills: who can splash the most, bomb the hardest, kiss for the longest while treading water; all finishing with an adolescent game Ursula herself used to play. Take your trunks off, wave them in the air. Can you get them back on before the others come for the swimwear?

Adrian Howells as ‘Adrienne’
Making sure the kids don’t stray out of line, the swimsuits are respectable, the changing rooms are clean and the tuck shop is fully stocked, Adrienne, the most glamorous changing room attendant in town, had her work cut out for her.
