An independent film telling a Liverpool fairytale…
Thanks to all who came out to our Light Night bus event and the screenings at 3345 Parr Street afterwards – a great time was had by all!
We also have to let you know that Under the Mud is now available for the low price of £9.99 from this very website. So if you still haven’t got a copy, or you want some more for family and friends, get to clicking the link on the right hand side!
Our bus tour and screening are confirmed! You will be able to tour Liverpool’s Light Night, this Friday, the 14th of May, on our Under the Mud bus, and get shuttled around the gallery hotspots while being entertained by our cast and crew! You’ll also be able to see our film for free, which will be playing on a loop from 6pm in 3345 Parr Street, located at 33-45 Parr St, L1 4JN.

The Under the Mud bus is back!
We’re going to be running a circuit of the city from 6-10pm on Light Night, the event organised once a year by Open Culture in which several of Liverpool’s cultural hotspots stay open for the evening and host special events.
We’ll be starting outside Liverpool Central Library on William Brown Street, moving on to Rockscape on Renshaw Street (also a short walk from FACT and St Luke’s), then going up to the JMU School of Art & Design on Brownlow Hill and down to the Albert Dock.
So if you want a lift around Night Light, and want to meet the cast and crew of Under the Mud, hop on the bus! Stars Lenny Wood and Mick Colligan will be in attendance, as will director Sol Papadopoulos and producer Roy Boulter (formerly of pop group The Farm). There will be laughs, songs and dances along the way, and the final bus pickup from the Albert Dock will take you to a late-night screening of Under the Mud (location TBC).
The full timetable for the bus is as follows:
Central Library, William Brown St – 18:15, 19:35, 20:55
Rockscape, Renshaw St – 18:30, 19:50, 21:10
JMU School of Art & Design, Mount Pleasant – 18:45, 20:05, 21:25
Coach Stop, Albert Dock – 19:15, 20:35, 21:45
Thanks to everyone who came out on Saturday to our Under the Mud bus day event at Liverpool One. Songs were sang, autographed posters were handed out and there was free face-painting for kids (and for some of our “Mud” team!)
We got to meet lots of lovely people as we spread the message about our film. BBC Radio Merseyside was there to interview our cast and writers for the Billy Butler show, and we’ll be putting excerpts from the show online. For now, check out the photos that we got of the event, over at our Flickr account.
Ready for a day out? Our Under the Mud bus will be parking all day Saturday, right in the middle of Liverpool One!
Our beautiful No.86 will be sitting in the space between Waterstones and John Lewis, and we’ll be there with it, ready for a day full of fun. Radio Merseyside will be broadcasting us live from 10 am, interviewing the Mud team and any members of the public who are lucky enough to be there witnessing all our hoopla. Throughout the day there will be cast and crew members greeting passersby, having their pictures taken and signing posters of Under the Mud. We’ll also be publicising our film in the spirit in which it was made, taking along our video camera and asking you the public to share your best stories and memories of Liverpool with the world.
So come along and have a great time!
Check us out!
The Under the Mud bus wrap has been completed, and we’re on the number 86 running from the city centre to Garston.
As you can see, it’s looking fantastic, so thanks to all the supporters of the film for helping us get to this point. We knew this would help get the word out in style, but seeing the end product has taken our breath away.
Merry Christmas, everyone!
