Live and Local present Model Village by New Perspectives Theatre at the Palace Community Centre, Ibstock, near Coalville

Set in rural England today, two parallel worlds are at loggerheads. Meet intern Jodie, foxhunting villager Jill, miniaturist and history buff Brian, Victor the village Mayor, Urban Artist Culter and Henry, the health inspector.

Welcome to the Model Village, set in an acre of idyllic England. Perfect waist-high houses are bordered by manicured lawns with bonsai trees; there is a fishing village, a town hall, a castle, a pier and a zoo. But the jaded attraction is in debt and developers are prospecting.

The marketing team, chasings, proposes a multi-cultural estate of affordable eco-housing.

The village is closed for renovations. Architectural miniaturist Brian and work-placement Jodie are joined by Cutler, a big-name artist from the city and then things start to go wrong..

The distress and division of a country are reflected in a miniature version of itself and the audience are invited to make their vote in the interval in a bid to harmony.

This is a production guaranteed to spark debate; high quality theatre made specifically for rural audiences: entertaining, relevant and involving the audience as the story develops
