If you’ve been in and around Birmingham for the past four weekends you’ll have seen all sorts of shenanigans going on as part of Six Summer Saturdays. Shows and highlights from the best outdoor theatre have been organised by the Hippodrome, which are free to catch all over the city.
There are only two Saturday’s left in the series, but still plenty of performances to catch on 21 August and 28 August.
Now, I know Christmas is long gone and forgotten but I had to post this festive treat. Geist der Weihnachtsvergangenheit is loosely translated to ‘Spirit of Christmas past’, and is the title of this beautiful video shot at last year’s Christmas German market. It is shot by Vimeo user Old Dead Eye and shows the city at its cinematic best.
I could definitely see an edited down version of this being a great marketing tool for Birmingham. Vimeo doesn’t have any information about the film maker so please get in touch if you are him!
