A happy little show about the big things in life.
Artist, animal-lover and unlikely sex symbol Bob Ross brought art into the living rooms of millions with TV phenomenon The Joy of Painting.
With his big heart (and even bigger perm) Bob taught an entire generation to embrace their creativity, with his mantra ‘there are no mistakes in life, only happy accidents.’
Sarah-Louise Young (★★★★★ An Evening Without Kate Bush) celebrates his enduring impact in this brand-new interactive show about love, grief and friendly squirrels.
Directed by Ali James, original songs composed with Jordan Paul Clarke.
Written and performed by Sarah-Louise Young: www.sarah-louise-young.com
