The Random Dance company was founded in 1993 by the multi award-winning British choreographer and director Wayne McGregor. In 2003, McGregor commissioned two other world-ranking choreographers, Rui Horta and Shobana Jeyasingh, to join the company and contribute to their newest production called ‘Polar Sequences’. The company then began touring Polar Sequences later in the year, with the show running at Hall for Cornwall from the 24th of November. This article gives an overview of the company, the show and the programme to provide oppurtunities for Cornish children to experience the arts.
Described as one of the greatest operas ever written, the Magic Flute is an opera in two acts by Mozart which follows the adventures of Prince Tamino and the bird-catcher Papageno on their quest to rescue Pamina. The opera ran at Hall for Cornwall between the 19th and 22nd of November 2003. The first newspaper cutting praises the first night of the performance as a ‘marvellous relaxation and pleasure.’ The second newspaper cutting is an advertisement for coach trips by Mounts Bay Coaches Penzance which also featured in the same publication of the West Britton. The article advertises a coach trip to see the Wizard of Oz pantomine at Hall for Cornwall on Sunday the 11th of January.
Hall for Cornwall runs a variety of community outreach and artistic performance programmes. Kernow Voice was a Hall for Cornwall project funded by the Community Education and Participatory Arts Department and offered the oppurtunity for children aged 9-14 to participate in singing and voice workshops at the hall.
Cornwall Youth Music Action Zone (CYMAZ) was a registered charity which provided extra cirricular music workshops for young people who wouldn’t otherwise have access to such initiatives. CYMAZ used trained community musicians to work with disengaged and disaffected young people up to the age of 19. Hall for Cornwall would regularly play host to these workshops and conduct them in collaboration with CYMAZ.

As one of many participating institutions, Hall for Cornwall launced A Festival of Community Arts which commissioned a series of performances and events which responded to this agenda.
