BREAKOUT needs YOU!

Everyone at MAYC is full of enthusiasm for this year's BREAKOUT event, but they need your help to make the weekend the greatest MAYC National Weekend ever!

There are three main ways you can get involved at the BREAKOUT event:

• Get involved in TGI Saturday
• Help with the organisation of the BREAKOUT event
• Join the Street Theatre

TGI Saturday

Your talent is urgently required! We are looking for youth groups or individuals to perform in TGI Saturday at the NEC in Birmingham, 1 - 3 October 1999.

The theme is World Cultures. You might be able to perform scenes from Grease illustrating America; from Joseph and his Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat for Egypt; play steel drums; perform dance from an Asian culture; morris dancing for England; Maori stick dancing; comment on an Australian soap through a short sketch; etc. etc. etc.

Are you interested? If so send us a camcorder video showing us what you can do. Be creative using the theme World Cultures. Don't be put off because your idea doesn't exactly fit in with the description. We want you to suggest an idea and through it make it your TGI Saturday. Let us know details and point of contact for your youth group.

Video tapes to TGI Producer Karen Wilding; 92 Western Drive, Leyland, Lancashire, PR5 3JE by 14 April.

Don't be shy - join TGI!
