DIGIT Fest Launches - and at Tales from Paradise Heights we DIG IT...


Hi all

Ian Curley, Chris Lane and myself were at the DIGIT Festival Press Launch this morning. 

The Lowry's STEVE COWTON (Senior Theatre's Programmer) set the ball rolling with a terrific opening speech about the spirit of the festival, and how it is all running as part of a series of events supporting next years OLYMPICS and PARALYMPICS.   JONATHAN LEWIS (DIGIT Fest Project Manager) was next covering what the festival was about and the fact that the programming has all been done by the young volunteers who are running the festival. 

And then came some of the volunteers themselves; they each gave very lively, enthusiastic and professional presentations covering the different days and different experiences that each day has to offer the public, and you could feel the enthusiasm coming off them in waves. 

There will be some truly ground breaking stuff on over these three days across a wide range of creative practioners/artists right at the cutting edge of performance and digital technology.  Tales from Paradise Heights is delighted to be in such talented and prestigious company.  The video presentations from the artists involved were truly breath taking, there will be some tremendously exciting events over the three days and I'd strongly advise booking well in advance on the website to ensure you aren't disappointed. 

I'm very pleased to say that our trailer for THE WATCHER was very well recieved - it's FANTASTIC that the film gets to premiere as part of this amazing festival, along with of course RANK (the multi media play) and I'M FRANK MORGAN (short film) three complete story's on their own in Paradise Heights but also a unique trilogy with events and places that ripple through all three tales, a great opportunity to get a taste of Tales from Paradise Heights.
