FromS2A is a photo journal following the story of "From Stephen to Avenham". A Preston Guild 2012 international community theatre project involving rural and urban young people, and a whole pile of artists.

Sue Robinson, Marin De Boer, or Rob Howell may blip about our adventures in the wilds of rural Lancashire, or the wilds of Preston city. The journal started on 2nd July 2012 and will end in mid-September. Find out what we get up to!

Blackburn-based Culturapedia and Dutch location theatre company, PeerGroup are collaborating on this unique Preston Guild 2012 project: from Stephen to Avenham.

Imagine a gentle walk down a forest track to an old dusty barn. You hear curious sounds in the trees. Inside the barn you discover a map, see flickering lights and slowly stories are unravelled. Stories of intrigue, stories of love, stories of modern life. Joseph Hodgson walks in and the music begins....

Drawing on the history of the Guild when traders came in from distant parts to trade and celebrate, the project links groups from the Hodder Valley and Preston via the Hodder River and River Ribble. Young people will work to create two human scale theatrical maps which will form a performance showing their lives through images, food, music and storytelling. Putting young people's lives from rural and urban Lancashire firmly on the map.
