Theatre
The brilliant comedy West End and Broadway smash hit ‘One Man, Two Guvnors‘ with James Corden is available FREE from National Theatre Live and is available to view until April 10th.
It went out live on Thursday 2nd April and in less than 24hrs it has been watched over 1m times. All for a good cause too. Don’t miss it.
Comedy
Were you planning to come to our Comedy Night? Well here’s the next best thing – STREAM REAL LIVE COMEDY! Check out this great offer from The Times and NextUp Comedy and an exclusive 1 month free trial using the code TIMES2020. Cancel anytime.
Video Conferencing
Tired of the ‘Poor Connection’ warnings in HouseParty or got more than 8 people who want to join….. then check out Google Hangouts. You just need a Google account, create a video conference meeting in your diary and email people a link or just start a call instantly and share a link. Nothing to install and it just works!
If you are a Team Manager, Coach, First Aider, Commitee Member or Key Volunteer then the Club can give you access to Google Meet which is the business/education version of Google Hangouts (you see Google Hangouts features if you’re not logged in with a Google Business/Education account). There’s not much difference except you can conference up to 250 users/friends – they don’t need any kind of Google account! Please complete this form to get an Old Ruts Google account – you also get an oldruts.club email address and 30GB of free storage. Conditions apply.
Zoom is also popular and it’s free. Just sign up for an account.
