Jack Drum Arts – a North East based artists’ co-operative – has received generous Arts Council funding, enabling them to offer two new shows for young audiences (and their families) to venues and festivals across the UK.
The funding will enable the co-operative to contract a new ensemble of actors for 3 months, employ a guest director and designer, and give performances to 700 children and go on tour.
There are two shows on offer. ‘From Cinders to Tatters’ explores the different versions of Cinderella inspired by Bartolome Esteban Murillo’s extraordinary genre paintings of street children in 17th century Seville, and the rich traditions of Gypsy Romany Travellers.
‘The Three Bears Out & About’ explores what happens when we do something we shouldn’t do or when we go somewhere we shouldn’t go? It puts a new twist on a familiar tale exploring what it feels like to enter the unknown, to be out of your comfort zone.
