Event

Doldrum's Lair - 5 timed performances
Portland's High Angle Battery becomes the setting for an evocative performance created by Portland Islanders. Dancers will perform within the battery itself to a soundtrack created using the voices of local people. This historic and derelict landmark will also form the backdrop to an installation of 2692 blue butterflies - the rare Cretaceous Silver Studded Blue which is unique to Portland - each butterfly represents a young person who lives on the island. Visit the site and hear tales from islanders, explore the atmospheric 'ghost tunnels', encounter the dancers and try and discover just where Doldrum lurks.
This project is part of Battle for the Winds, which is managed by Activate Performing Arts in partnership with Portland Community Partnership and will form part of the opening ceremony for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
