PART OF NORTH OF THE TYNE, UNDER THE STARS PRODUCED BY PINWHEEL AND DAT EVENTS AND COMMISSIONED BY THE NORTH OF TYNE COMBINED AUTHORITY

A new video-mapping project created for North of the Tyne, Under the Stars – a free outdoor festival of projection, magic and storytelling, inspired by local stories and landscapes from across Newcastle, Northumberland and North Tyneside.

Join us on a multimedia adventure, from the Scottish border to the banks of the Tyne. Take Me To The River tells a powerful, punchy tale of northeast spirit and playful perseverance, inspired by local history and the stories that stay with us.

A single child makes their way through forests, towns and shorelines, against a backdrop of moving time. Along the way they gather an ever-growing bunch of children and creatures, all set on having a splash about in the Tyne.

Animation, a brass band score and archive film footage provided by Yorkshire and North East Film all combine in this fun film projection about a community coming together and the determination to have a good time.
