Thank you! Thank you!
to everyone who contributed to our new immersive production – The Egg Shack – and those who joined in our Stepping Out events. We had laughed, skipped and ate egg butties until the sun came down!
We are currently working behind the scenes, making plans for 2025 and beyond so watch this space. In the meantime…
We have range of activities and performances that are available for bookings.
Strut your stuff…

Red Herring’s Silent Disco
James Brown said, ‘The one thing that can solve most of our problems is dancing’ so get down to our disco lounge and boogie your cares away! We’ve got a hip-wiggling set of classic disco with some lesser known funk and rare groove. There are prizes to be won – points for bling, shapes and enthusiasm. But if you’re at a loss, no problem, we’ll share the moves and you can copy. So raise yo’ hands and funky chicken with us!
Our Silent Disco comes with extra groove. Once the group is in step with each other, we encourage people to interact – with each other, with people outside the disco bubble and with the environment, leading to a joyful, shared experience like no other!
Our silent discos have been a popular features at various community events in North Devon including with the Burton Art Gallery and at Holsworthy Fair and further afield including Stockton International Riverside Festival.

A Trip to…
is a series of Sound Journeys in which the listener is transported into different natural environments. Each has an accompanying Touch Tour where the listener is offered objects to touch and smell, providing a more immersive, sensory experience.
These experiences are popular with organisations who value nature connection. Bookers include Bideford Fair, North Devon Museums, Libraries Unlimited and One Barnstaple.

Oystercatchers
is a beautiful and curious strolling performance, featuring two migrant Oystercatchers, who have arrived back from the Faroe Islands. Rather disorientated, they enlist help from local people to reach the seaside. At the seaside, they get busy with setting up home and catching shellfish.
The Oystercatchers have appeared in Northam Burrows, Bideford, Barnstaple, Saunton Sands, Appledore, High Bickington and at Stepping Out and Bridgewater Quayside Festivals.
