This is another lovely little item on ITV News South West about the Grand Pier sentry box that we have revamped in Teignmouth... the worlds of seaside and peepshows combined! ![]()
This has been a complex community partnership between Prom-Prom, Devon County Council, the Grand Pier, Teignbridge District Council, Teignmouth Town Council, Teignmouth Heritage Museum and a range of visual artists - the result being a permanent and delightful contribution to the fabric of Teignmouth seafront, which is free and accessible to all! We are there regularly each Monday and Tuesday throughout the summer, animating the promenade with shows, games and walkabout family fun... see you down there, I hope.
Here's a thing - Routledge have started promoting my new pierrot book, so do take advantage of this offer whilst it lasts! There's more information here: www.routledge.com/Dont-Forget-The-Pierrots-The-Complete-History-of-British-Pierrot/Lidington/p/bo...
Here is a list of our summer activities over the next month or so - do come along if you can and join-in the fun - we'd love to see you there!![]()
