Promo for Courtyard Theatres production of Dick Whittington Director, cinematographer
In a first for Feral, we staged an immersive theatre dining experience like no other at The Beefy Boys restaurant in Hereford as a celebration of Valentine’s Day 2024. Inspired by local stories of romance from the Old Cattle Market, Love Bites was an Arts Council funded talent development project which was written by participants of Writing Room Extra, a writing group delivered at The Courtyard Hereford by Lisle Turner from Open Sky Theatre. The Triple was written by Sara-Jane Arbury & Judith Woodfield. It was inspired by an intriguing real-life 19th century story.

WATER LILY - Feral Productions
For over 100 years, unmarried women who fell pregnant were stigmatised and hidden away in Mother and Baby Homes and Magdalene Laundries. Contrary to current understanding, this was not just in Ireland but across the UK and beyond. We pass these buildings every day, largely repurposed, largely forgotten, the stories they carry staying firmly within their walls.
To give voice to the ‘unheard’ women who were sent there, in 2019 Feral Productions collaborated with Ledbury poet Sara-Jane Arbury who turned archival research into verse. Her verses were then transformed into theatrical songs by Olivia Preye and performed in Hereford in a series of promenade performances across nine different locations.

80,000 BARNACLES ABOVE THE SEA

Helping to tell the story of this project as a filmmaker has been a unique and memorable experience. A journey of discovery - connecting with the source of the artists’ inspiration. Plas-Glyn-Weddw art gallery in North Wales has such a rich and varied history, the current and future plans for Plas are truly inspiring. Understanding the historical, socio economical and environmental messages held within this project inspired me to set out to create a film that documents not only what happened but also why...
