OUT OF THE MOUTH OF THE PARRETT - A RIVER ADVENTURE!

An original Theatre Mélange production in partnership with Somerset County Libraries.

From the Bristol Channel into Somerset's rural heartlands, this is a colourful portrait of an extraordinary landscape as seen through the eyes of the people who live and work there.

The film created through this voyage of discovery was first shown as part of a multi-media, live performance set within a spectacular world of light and sound especially designed for Bridgwater Library.

The whole journey lasts about an hour or drop in to the different ports of call below... bon voyage!
