Meaningful drama that encapsulates Frome's culture.
From "Shaping Frome's cultural story"
Go to the project
I’d like to suggest we could wrap many aspects of Frome’s culture through drama. Not the usual happy-clappy work (admirable and fun though that is), but something that expresses how the people of Frome really feel, and how their forebears felt and lived. It would be collaborative and authentic, rather than imposed from above, and would involve people whose voices are rarely heard. There are examples of this kind of work in other places in the UK.
One of Frome’s organisations has recently collected interviews from people in Trinity, and that could be a starting point for constructing a story or a thread.
That said, it would be ambitious task, and therefore not lightly undertaken.
Equally, it would tick a lot of boxes for Town of Culture.
