‘Time to be Late’ was part evocative bus journey, part theatrical experience, the public’s daily journey to and from work came alive through a series of energetic and humourous scenes that took place at bus stops along Blackfriars Road. Performers included the award winning Natural Theatre Company who have been making people laugh in nearly 80 countries for over 40 years, and Scotty the Blue Bunny who performed his unique cabaret
show.
