Wheal Martyn

Clay

In October 2017 Shallal 2 was invited back to Wheal Martyn to perform again after the success of their Beautiful Dirt show in April

The new show Clay, again drew inspiration from clay mining heritage at Wheal Martyn museum. Shallal 2 was joined by dancers from Shallal's Out There dance group in Liskeard as well as young people from Mevagissey School Dance Club, Doubletrees School and St Austell Home Ed Group.

Afterwards Wheal Martyn education officer Gemma Martin said:

Beautiful Dirt

Beautiful Dirt was an original performance by Shallal 2 community performance dance company at Wheal Martyn china clay mining museum

Shallal 2 researched the history behind Wheal Martyn as inspiration for their dance pieces. Shallal 2 was joined by dancers from Shallal's Out There dance group in Liskeard.

Wheal Martyn was extremely pleased with the performance. Education officer Gemma Martin said this:
