What We Do

activating professional development

Growbags / Homegrown

Growbags

Nights of ‘scratch’ theatre and dance across Dorset, Bournemouth and Poole. Local artists/companies tried out extracts of work and work in progress to audiences open to new ideas. The evenings consisted of music, magic and a taste of some theatre and dance being made in Dorset.

Growbags were hosted by Dorchester Arts Centre, Weymouth College, Bridport Arts Centre and Lighouse.

Homegrown

4th July at Lighthouse, Poole

We are proud to be programming a showcase of the best Theatre and Dance that our county has to offer.

We will be hand picking 6 artists & companies for this unique day of performance. The
Lighthouse will play host to live music, short films, and a combination of theatre and dance
performances by professional companies.

Each company/artist performing is ready to tour at a regional, national and international level. This event will provide local professionals a chance to be seen by some of the countries leading arts promoters, programmers and performers. Supporting artists is a fundamental part of our work and this project will provide opportunities for crucial
development of new work.
