Dido's Bar in Newham

Dash Arts' production of Dido's Bar was
developed and made in Newham. As part of our year-long programme,
we were privileged to work with Community Links, an amazing hub
which offers young people advice, employment skills, and the
chance to develop their audio skills in their top-notch
production studio. 


We've brought some of these young people into the world of Dido's
Bar through our podcast. Dash Producer Cristina Catalina and
Podcast Producer Rachael Head worked in the studio with our
participants, talking through the universal themes of Dido's Bar
and exploring how those themes have affected their lives.
