The Dancing Club
The Dancing Club is a project celebrating Kidderminster
legends Frank & Wynn Freeman. After the war Frank returned to
Kidderminster and wanted to set up a dancing club. He inspired a whole town
to get dancing and unlocked the creativity inside them. Across decades
Frank & Wynn offered a place to go, to be creative, to be safe, to
celebrate, and somewhere to access the latest music and dance trends. The
Dancing Club became iconic.
'The
Dancing Club' tells the stories of the communities, families, dancers and
the musicians who passed through it.
Writer /
Director Caroline
Jester has been collecting stories and memories of
Frank & Wynn across her home town, Kidderminster. She has
teamed up with Kidderminster's Andy Edwards, long term
collaborator of Robert Plant, who is working with acclaimed Double Bassist
Tom Clarke-Hill making original music for the project.
As we
build this project we want to know what the people of Kidderminster think.
We would want you to come to this rehearsed reading (so expect informal,
scripts in hand and fun) and stay for a chat afterwards to tell us what you
think.
