The extraordinary story of Amy Winehouse’s early rise to fame from her early days in Camden through the making of her groundbreaking album, Back to Black that catapulted Winehouse to global fame.

DRAMATICALLY DIFFERENT

A fun and exciting weekly drama group aimed at developing theatre performance skills, building confidence, and making new friends through the Dramatic Arts.

This is a creative opportunity for young people to develop and explore their own voice. We focus on giving young people creative choice, a safe space for self-expression and exploration, building a community of collaboration and inclusivity. We can cover performance skills such as improvisation and devising, physical theatre, voice and characterisation, writing and script work. Director and facilitator, Rachel Swain, is an award winning Youth Theatre Practitioner, with over 25 years teaching experience, Rachel writes original Youth Theatre productions to ensure all young people have their moment to shine. Her youth group ‘Dramatically Different Brixham’ has been the resident Youth Theatre in Brixham for over 10 years and ‘Dramatically Different Teignmouth’ has been a huge success since it was established in 2019. Rachel is very excited to be bringing this new project to The Flavel for the young people of Dartmouth and surrounding area.

TalkFilm at The Flavel

(like a book club but for film lovers!)

Our next meeting is on Tuesday 14 May at 6.30pm in The Flavel Café

 

FILM: Back to Black (15)

The extraordinary story of Amy Winehouse’s early rise to fame from her early days in Camden through the making of her groundbreaking album, Back to Black that catapulted Winehouse to global fame. Told through Amy’s eyes and inspired by her deeply personal lyrics, the film explores and embraces the many layers of the iconic artist and the tumultuous love story at the centre of one of the most legendary albums of all time.

 

TalkFilm at The Flavel is for all those people who love film and want to explore their experience, enjoyment (or not!) and views with others.

Like a book or reading group for film where group members take a lead in planning and facilitating the session. We meet before the film in The Flavel Cafe for an introduction (like Ali Plum or Mark Kermode) and after the film meet to discuss the it together in The Flavel bar.

The Flavel will choose the films from current films and scheduled a film club meet when we wrap a TalkFilm event around the film.

Film goers will buy their film ticket as normal and there will be no extra charge for the club event.
