THE BOB ROSS EFFECT!
The Bob Ross Effect
With his famous perm and inspiring quotes (“There are no mistakes in life, just happy accidents”)
Bob Ross brought joy to millions through his low budget TV programme, ‘The Joy of Painting’.
In this funny, uplifting and interactive new show, Sarah-Louise Young (‘An Evening Without Kate
Bush’, ‘Julie Madly Deeply’ and ‘This Is Your Tribute’) invites us to explore our own creativity and
learn about the many ways this unlikely hero of the art world changed people’s lives.
For those who want to, audiences are given the opportunity to create some art themselves and
share their own stories about loved ones who have had a lasting impact on the way they live.
Expect laughter, tears and a lot of happy little trees.
After the show, Sarah-Louise will host an optional drop-in art class for anyone who would like to pick
up a paint brush and have a go at making something. No previous experience or talent required!
