As The Destroyers wrapped up our summer programme at the end of August, autumn approaches!
Our autumn programme is now uploaded to this site under What's On. We've got nearly 90 shows to see you through to Christmas! All events are listed but if you wish to receive a printed copy in the post please sign up to our Mailing List (find it on the menu bar at the top of this page).
Artsreach is once again taking part in Dorset’s Inside Out festival this September, particularly helping to promote the event at Winspit quarry which is taking place on Thursday 16th and Friday 17th September. There is a free private viewing on Wednesday 15th September for villagers around Winspit.
This event will be an unusual and innovative collaboration specially created for one of the Jurassic Coast’s most remarkable locations. The project will lead the audience down from the historic Square & Compass pub to the site where they will experience a combination of installation pieces, sound and projection, culminating in an awe-inspiring live performance. Cradled in the cliffs in the former quarrying site of Winspit, this new commission brings together the incredible accordion playing of Finnish musician Kimmo Pohjonen with the intricate and curious projected animations of the Dorset-based company Paper Cinema.
We have been asked to ‘recruit’ ten volunteer stewards for each night, basically to guide the audience on the walk down to the quarry, and be on hand to help. By being a steward you would get to see this show for free, instead of the £10 ticket price! We would really value your help if you were able to spare one evening either that Wednesday, Thursday or Friday. There will be a volunteer briefing session each evening. Please do get in touch with us if you are able to help out!
