We are fine but as you can see our beautiful Little Yellow Theatre is not. Following a mechanical fault and a narrow escape we are heartbroken to say that the Little Yellow Theatre is currently closed for business. The show must go on. Please help rebuild Electric Umbrella’s Little Yellow Theatre in time for our Christmas Tour. Lots of people are asking how they can help so here is a start. Thank you for all your support and well wishes.

Mel and Tom were involved in a road traffic accident on the A12 just as they approached the Olympic Park with the Little Yellow Theatre on tow for an event. The wheel bearing went on the trailer causing it to crash. Mel and Tom had a very lucky escape and everything is fine, but understandably they are gutted at the loss of the Little Yellow Theatre.

The Little Yellow Theatre was a product of weeks of hard work, goodwill, love, fundraising, commitment… and in it’s very short existence made such a huge impact on those who experienced it. It was a massive asset to the charity and held such tremendous potential and opportunities for the members of Electric Umbrella over the coming months.

Please help Electric Umbrella rebirth the Little Yellow Theatre in time for their Christmas tour, and bring back something they all loved. You can donate here  https://www.justgiving.com/campaigns/charity/electric-umbrella/littleyellowtheatre

Huge thanks as ever go to the unwavering Electric Umbrella community for their support now and always xx

We were delighted to recently recognise Paul Gershlick, Partner at VWV Law Firm in Watford, with our Corporate Ambassador Award . Paul first introduced Electric Umbrella to VWV and their wider network after inviting us to perform online at their 2020 PING conference. Since then, a real friendship was struck and Paul, along with his team at VWV Watford, have gone above and beyond to support Electric Umbrella. Whether it’s having us return to perform at future conferences, supporting us with in-office charity events and lunches, or attending our shows, Paul and the VWV Watford team have bought into the Electric Umbrella way. In addition to VWV Watford making Electric Umbrella their office charity of the year for two years running, Paul personally volunteers on a weekly basis at our Big Yellow Choir, where he was presented with his award by our CEO Mel and choir member Ali, earlier this month.
