Sadlers Wells played host on Thurs to the launch of The Future Playground: an online community of artists creating theatre, dance, visual art, music and other art forms for children. Started by Fevered Sleep and built on the Ning platform, The Future Playground is a place for sharing, discussing and collaborating on issues, projects and events.

The project was insprired in part by the National Theatre Wales community site, also using Ning. In it's first year, the NTW community has become a place where the Welsh theatre community meet and share their work and collaborate on the first year of productions of their new National Theatre.

The project was commissioned by David Harradine, who's the Artistic Director of Fevered Sleep. We've worked together with Sarah DeFriend on the design of the site, using minimal distractions from the conversations members are having.  Fevered Sleep and Fuel staff have had basic training in Ning administration and online community building, and I'll be supporting them over the first few months of the project.

Download | Demo (coming! - this site runs on it atm)

Please follow the 10 steps in the Readme.txt carefully!

Evolved from Boxdaddy, based on YongFook's classic Boxy theme, has been tested on Sweetcron 1.08e and has:

• Tabbed navigation for single source activity
• 'Link/blog/video/photo/audio' labels for items
• Full, blog & page RSS feeds (i.e. feeds for search, tags, services etc)
• A nice user interface using service colors and rounded corners in CSS3
• A blog display area at the top of the homepage (thanks to teh blog ar (not) dead)
• All items news shares and links go straight to original source
• Audio players for both Blip.fm and Last.fm
• Twitter lives in the sidebar now - way too noisy for this Sweetcron
• A friendfeed page for the hell of it
• Disqus integration (just add your username to files)

I've added a plugin folder with the relevant plugins bundled inside the zip. 

(Update: Version 1.1 includes IE fixes - 23/1)

User requirements: some PHP and CSS knowledge
