Legends of the Rocks
Claque Theatre & Rusthall Community Arts
Performance Programme
Following in a long line of community plays produced by Claque Theatre, Legends of the Rocks was a site-specific performance in Claque’s Rusthall home – celebrating the stunning scenery of Toad Rock and its environment. The performance was ‘devised’ by the community in a series of creative workshops and then developed into a final script. Run on a limited community budget, the programme needed to be informative as well as cost-effective.
