A day of local tales, theatre, epic poetry and extra-fun folk music.  This programme brings together performers from up and down the railway and river celebrating local artists and heritage.  3-Minute Arts present Ironstone Tales – a new short play dramatising real and imagined events during the rise and fall of Glaisdale’s ironstone industry (with music and soundscape).  Everwitch brings Bomb Happy: Smudger's Story, a WW2 and mental health themed spoken word & song performance that uses first-hand verbatim testimony of D-Day Veteran Ken Smith and his widow Gloria Smith to tell the story of his D-Day & other WW2 experiences and its impact on his mental health and marriage through the lens of lifelong sleep trauma.

Acclaimed local poet, Bob Beagrie, performs poems from The Hand of Glory: a biography:  An absurd narrative relating the adventures and exploits of the infamous mummified and supposedly enchanted human hand currently displayed in Whitby Museum. Aisha Lama brings her distinctive spoken word exploring nature, love, loss and identity.  And if this isn’t enough to fill your ears, the amazing young musicians of M@THOT (Music at the Heart of Teesdale) perform their own arrangements of local folk melodies and songs.
