Dragon Steps

Steps Series  

Juice Festival – NewcastleGateshead
26th October – 4th November

Dragon Steps was commissioned by Juice, a festival for young people which runs across a hostof arts venues in NewcastleGateshead. The 2013 had a Dragon theme, in part because Seven Storieswas due to open a major exhibition celebrating Cressdia Cowell‘s Dragon Books.

Dragon Steps was spread across six venues. Although each individual scene could be enjoyed on its own merits the scenes did work best in a sequence that told a story:

Great North Museum: Hancock
Northern Stage
Dance City
Discovery Museum
The Sage Gateshead
BALTIC
