Peregrinations

with Eyebrow Arts (Dot Howard and Sorrel Muggridge), Rebecca Chapman and Alice Lee

This is a past event which has now ended.

Watching a Peregrine Falcon swoop across Norwich’s sky and land on its iconic cathedral spire is a spectacular sight that many people enjoy witnessing. Peregrines have resided here for 10 years, nesting on a platform constructed by the Hawk and Owl Trust and erected by the local Fire Service.

The fastest member of the animal kingdom and a remarkable example of urban wildlife, they are an extraordinary species to have as neighbours. This performance explores our co-existence with Peregrine Falcons and their significant contribution to Norwich’s skyscape and community.

During lockdown, four local artists have worked with community groups to develop original performative artworks depicting and celebrating the Peregrines of Norwich Cathedral. Together they present ‘Peregrinations’ a performance featuring live art, physical theatre, kinetic sculpture and spoken word. ‘Peregrinations’ is curated by Holly Bodmer, featuring performance and art by Alice Lee with Norwich Men’s Shed, Eyebrow Arts (Dot Howard and Sorrel Muggridge), with Corton House Residential Home, Rebecca Chapman with members of Total Ensemble and Holly Bodmer with Su Squire and members of Norwich Community. Supported by Arts Council England, Norfolk and Norwich Festival, Hawk and Owl Trust, Norwich Peregrines Group and Norfolk County Council.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
