The Romany Trail Part One takes us on a search for the lost gypsy tribes of Egypt, up the Nile to the ancient town of Luxor in the shadow of the great Pharaoh’s tombs. Along the way, from the markets of Cairo to the temple of Karnak, we meet dancing girls and acrobats, magicians, fortune-tellers and even mystics performing an exorcism. The programme culminates in the rhythms of Flamenco, in the gypsy caves of the Alhambra, where some of Spain’s foremost gypsy families celebrate their history.
The Romany Trail Part Two is a penetrating, provocative tour of a fabled people’s existence. It reveals the prejudice they still face daily and which they combat with the lyrics and music they have carried and adapted on their long migrations.

A Soundie with Bobby Sherwood’s Orchestra, The Three Cheers, and Diana Castillo.
Healdsburg, California. Home to celebrated wineries, world-class art galleries... and one very dog-eared community theater. In a town so full of riches (both artistic and monetary), the Raven Players must, ironically, struggle. It's a struggle for both the attention of their cultured but ever-distracted patrons, and by extension the money (and thus, survival) those patrons bring. For the Raven troupe, making ends meet is a full-time job. And yet they carry on...show after show, and year after year. In that spirit, the Raven mounted their latest production in Spring 2012 with that most beloved of show-biz musicals ('Gypsy', naturally). And this time, our cameras were there, every step of the way. The lights are lowered and the audience is seated. So let's put on a show!

Looks at the milestones in a Gypsy girl's life leading to the biggest day of all - her wedding.

A camp of Russian gypsies, dancing and playing music. After an opening dance, a quartet of beer-drinkers gargles the Volga Boatman song, then another group hauling on a rope sings it (we finally see that the other end of the rope is anchored by a very small dog). A trench-coated bomber sneaks into the palace, where we see Rice-Puddin', the mad monk, cheating at a jigsaw puzzle. He spies the activity in the gypsy camp and orders a henchman to fetch the gypsy girl. The villagers revolt as a result, sending The Mad Monk scrambling on his horse; they stuff a bomb into his pants just as he turns his horse into a helicopter, and it explodes.
