So you think you can dance, act, sing.....

James Mann at the Bedford college South Bank Arts Centre - supporting BedFringe

Bedford College students past, present and future are to be found supporting and taking part in the increasingly popular BedFringe annual festival.

Two events are being stage in the College South Bank Arts Centre as part of BedFringe:

Sunday 17th July The Big Dance by Bedfordshire Youth Theatre will encourage 11 - 18 year olds to try out some new dance ideas - and there is a competition element for those who come prepared with a dance routine.

Friday 22nd July An Army of Lights will perform at the Studio Theatre at the South Bank. The group has singles out on release now - and rave reviews from serious music media.

Monday 25th former Bedford College student James Mann (pic) will be starring on stage at The Place in The Memory of Water. His brother Richard is one of the key figures behind BedFringe - the other being James Pharoah.

Bedford College Director of the Arts, Sue Blackman, says:

“The South Bank Arts Centre is a contemporary arts facility within Bedford College and we are delighted to host Bedfringe events. Our aim is to promote the arts in and around Bedford and we welcome opportunities to engage with individuals and groups to achieve this.
