  • Scoping Creative Age Festival Meeting Report
    Scoping a Creative Age Festival Meeting Report 8th July 2013 Keele University New Vic Theatre Introduction On 8th July 2013, a group of twenty delegates met at The New Vic Theatre in Newcastle- under-Lyme to discuss the potential of developing a Creative Age Festival in Stoke-on-Trent and North Staffordshire. These included representatives from community arts organisations; Keele University; Staffordshire University; EngAGE over-50’s group; Local Authority; cultural venues; and the health and social care sectors1. The meeting was facilitated by: Jackie Reynolds (Research Associate, Keele University) Jill Rezzano (Head of Education, New Vic Theatre) Miriam Bernard (Ages & Stages Project Lead/Prof. of Social Gerontology, Keele University) Kat Hughes (Youth Theatre Director and Education Practitioner, New Vic Theatre) It began with Jill explaining the background to the Ages and Stages project, in order to provide a context for the idea of a Creative Age Festival. Ages and Stages is a research partnership between Keele University and the New Vic Theatre. The original project was funded for three years (2009-12) by the multi-research council New Dynamics of Ageing (NDA) Programme, and then received ‘follow-on funding’ (2012-13) from the Arts and Humanities Research Council. The research focused on the role that Stoke-on-Trent’s Victoria Theatre (now the New Vic Theatre) has played in the lives of older people living and working in the Potteries during the last forty years. The 12-month follow-on project ‘translating research into practice’ has involved: establishing an intergenerational theatre company; devising and touring a new performance piece; developing and delivering an inter-professional training course; and scoping out the potential for a Creative Age Festival in North Staffordshire.
