This place calls to me

Red Herring is an outdoor arts company based in Bideford, North Devon which creates fun, comic, curious and considered outdoor events and performances – on street corners, in urban parks and more remote landscape settings.We take a sideways look at the world we live in and encourage people to come together to experience familiar places and stories in unfamiliar ways. Our style is unconventional, shaking up the expectations of what theatre and performance is about. We encourage people to be playful because play is joyful, active and optimistic and it helps us to feel and be positive about the world.
