Productions

The work was called "a gripping adventure story told by Angel Exit in their trademark physical theatre style" by Yorkshire Live.[1] The Secret Garden, an adaptation of the Frances Hodgson Burnett children's novel was co-commissioned by Activate and Lighthouse Poole and co-produced by Bridport Arts Centre and Dorchester Arts and toured the UK from January to April 2012.[5] Fessey commented that the production was "the biggest show we have done so far, in the fact that we are working with more people and have a lighting designer this time and puppetry...."[6]
