Bach, Handel and Verdi all come in for some wonderful pastiche writing, as do Gilbert and Sullivan. Be prepared to witness the nuptials of Miss Dracula and Frankenstein. In contrast to this Gothic 'Hammer-horror' spectacular there will be a group of colourful and atmospheric Yugoslav Folk-songs and Three Nonsense Songs by Matyas Seiber along with other items. </span><br /><div></div>__________<br /><div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1381142299344935833-4002572240390837612?l=corshamfestivalfringe.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>The Pound Arts Trust, known as Pound Arts,http://www.blogger.com/profile/15253417827311880662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1381142299344935833.post-91689939012970084942010-04-27T03:43:00.000-07:002010-05-27T05:58:36.648-07:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_RCYD-2bkJ_0/S-1DCgrNobI/AAAAAAAABNE/3XDGSBQh554/s1600/Web+Transcoco+film+image+-+Food+Inc.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 258px" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471102832735003058" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_RCYD-2bkJ_0/S-1DCgrNobI/AAAAAAAABNE/3XDGSBQh554/s320/Web+Transcoco+film+image+-+Food+Inc.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><strong><span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,153)">Food Inc, <span style="font-size:85%;">94mins</span></span></strong><br /><br /><span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,153)">Monday 21 June, 7.30pm</span><br /><br /><strong><span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,153)">The Pound, Corsham</span></strong><br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><em><span style="COLOR: rgb(51,51,255)">£5</span></em></span><br /><br /><p><span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)">These two local community groups join forces to bring you this must-see Academy Award-nominated documentary revealing the truth about the American food industry. <em>Food Inc</em> reveals surprising, and often shocking truths, about what we eat and how it is produced.
