Under the Dragon's Wing Dingly Dell 2013

Camp Bestival Theatre in the Woods
The 6th  of 6 consecutive years of The Village at Camp Bestival’s woodland trail

Our contribution to the Dingly Dell this year was an Audio Installation

Under The Dragon’s Wing 
in conjunction with the fiery sculptures of Mechanical Menagerie.

It told a tale with original music from Tablesale, Stick Up Boys, and Seiriol Davies to name a few. It played on headphones for 12 hours a day and told the story of how the dragons had been forced to move in to help the Dell to start all over again:

"Listen. Deep down in the Dingly Dell, long before the village came to be, there was a Dragon, they say. And legend told that there were many other strange and varied creatures besides. But father time is a weird guy and these friendly creatures of fire and shadow were squeezed and squashed and gradually retreated into the gloom to lie in wait for their next calling.
