Inter-generational work reclaiming arts spaces in Nottinghamshire

1st Framework and Green Candle Dance Company join forces with Nottinghamshire based promoters and Theatre Company, New Perspectives to present:

h o m e, an exciting residential project funded by the Millennium Festival draws together local people of all ages, backgrounds and ethnicities to create a spellbinding piece of dance, music and drama set in an unusual location

h o m e invites you to sit down to a table with a knife and fork and explore the place you imagine you inhabit. Through dance, music, theatre and visual workshops.

h o m e a topic central to every individual's identity. Under the artistic direction of Fergus Early (Green Candle Dance Company) and Peter Avery (1st Framework) HOME stimulates and encourages creativity in local areas by promoting integration and creative involvement of local groups.

h o m e plants its roots in Nottinghamshire for two, ten-day residencies in Ollerton and Newark. Local groups will perform alongside, and under the guidance of, a professional team transforming a number of spaces for its premiere in Ollerton and Bevercotes Miners Welfare Trust Social Club and the disused Newark Magnus School. Primary and secondary schools, travellers, older person's groups, craft and design groups, choirs and bands will work over a ten day period joining together for a final weekend of performances.

h o m e from home. Celebrate with Thoresby Colliery Band and enjoy a journey through the rooms to see the children of Barnby Road Primary School, Newark's Modern Sequence group, Ollerton's Whitewater Centre, Balderton Youth Tenants Association and many other local groups performing specially commissioned music, dance and song in unusual spaces.
