25.01.2022 DRAGON RIDER (PG) Friday January 22 at 2pm Saturday January 23 at 2pm Firedrake, the young silver dragon, has had enough of constantly having to hide in a wooded valley. He wants to show the older generation that he is a real dragon. When humans are about to destroy his family’s very last refuge, Firedrake secretly sets off on an adventurous journey with forest brownie Sorrel. He wants to find the Rim of Heaven, the dragons’ mysterious haven.... On their quest, Firedrake and Sorrel encounter Ben, an orphan and stray, who claims to be a dragon rider. While Ben and Firedrake make friends quickly, Sorrel becomes increasingly distrustful and tries to get rid of the orphan at every opportunity. But the unlikely trio has to learn to pull together because they are being hunted by Nettlebrand. The evil dragon-eating monster was created by an alchemist with the aim of tracking down and destroying every dragon on Earth Tickets available here>> https://www.countryarts.org.au//dra/venue/chaffey-theatre/

Six Riverland writers aged 16-26 will be spending the next few weeks exploring creative non-fiction with local facilitators/writers Stuart Watkinson and Kirste Vandergiessen and guest facilitator/writer Roz Bellamy zooming in from Melbourne. This week the writers watched Anne Frank: Parallel Stories at the Chaffey Theatre on Sunday before taking over the Green Room on Monday for their first workshop. During the workshop, everyone shared a little of their writing aspirations, background and started brainstorming ideas for the piece of writing they would like to develop during I Feel Like Writing.

01.01.2022 This week participants of I Feel Like Writing at the Chaffey Theatre (before lockdown) talked about writing routines, the things that get in the way and then dove into some writing. Facilitators Stuart and Kirste asked everyone to think about where and when they best write. Are you a morning writer or a night writer? Does music help? Do you prefer somewhere quiet or busy? So what about you Riverland, where and when do you write?
