| The Raft of the Medusa has successfully toured to a wide variety of schools in Yorkshire and the East Midlands. We plan to tour it again in Autumn 2009.This has bee the result of a collaboration between Rotherham LEA and the Blahs with support from Creative Partnerships under the title of Company of Teachers, which is the Rotherham LEA/Blahs initiative to create a theatre in education team from teachers in the borough.Steve is practising his French, in order to seek out a copy of Le Radeau de la Meduse, a film made by Iradj Azimi in 1998 which seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth, rather like the raft.
