All Change at S&DR200 Festival

25th February 2025 by Lauren Randall

imitating the dog are excited to announce that we are helping to launch the S&DR200 Festival this March with All Change, a spectacular open-air performance and drone show.

S&DR200 is a 9 month international festival taking place across County Durham and Tees Valley throughout 2025, to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the first journey of the Stockton and Darlington Railway (S&DR).

In collaboration with renowned Movement Directors Rocky Norton and Katie Pearson (London 2012 Olympics) and SKYMAGIC Drones, All Change invites audiences to travel with us through time and place in a fusion of technology, live performance and drone show that celebrates the bold innovation, creative thinking and ingenuity that led to the world-changing idea of public railways.

Using projection mapping and beautiful new soundscapes, All Change weaves together a series of ingenious, playful images and music, which tell this remarkable story of innovation.

As the show freewheels through time, we track the journey of the development of the railways, from the spark of an idea to the early locomotives, which powered the world into a new era; a story which moved people then, today and into the future.

Taking place on Saturday 29 March 2025 in Bishop’s Auckland, book your tickets here.

Commissioned by S&DR200, a programme delivered by Durham County Council, Darlington Borough Council, Stockton Borough Council
