Last month we visited Guildhall School of Music and Drama down in London to run a workshop for 60+ Production Design students as they were about the begin their next collaboration project.

It was a lovely day of sharing all about Ecostage, ecological thinking in the arts and working on new project ideas using the Ecostage Framework!

These are just some of the ideas the students came up with in the short space of time they were given!

Thank you to everyone who took part! And thank you to Guildhall for inviting us along!

This is a national emergency.
The impacts are already upon us.

What if we all found out the full picture…

📢 A special community screening: The People’s Emergency Briefing

Organised by Lytham St Annes Eco Group, Ecostage will be there to support the open discussion as another example of how we can implement more ecological practices in to everyday lives and a variety of industries.

What’s happening with climate and nature, and what does it mean for everyday life in the UK?

Join us for a screening of the People’s Emergency Briefing - an eye-opening film bringing together nine leading UK scientists and experts with the latest evidence and why it matters for things like:

🌧️ Extreme weather
🍞 Food security
🏥 Health
💷 Cost of living

The film is based on the National Emergency Briefing in Westminster (featured by ITV, Channel 4 and The Times) with appearances from Chris Packham, Deborah Meaden, and a range of voices from across the UK.

After the film there will be a short open discussion about what it means for our community and what we can do locally.

We have invited the local MPs and are optimistic that they will join with constituents for this important discussion about our future.

📍 Chapman Studio, Lowther Pavilion
📅 9th May 2026
