Inroads Productions are delighted to announce our ambitious 5 year project, Chalk Land, a series of events taking audiences on a journey  exploring  and celebrating the unique  eco-system of our chalk grassland landscape across rural and urban settings. 

Projects include At the Edge, celebrating the chalk downland of Newhaven, 2023; Digging Down, about allotments and growing food, in and around Lewes, 2023/24; Desire Path to the Campus, part of Sussex Retold Conference, 2026; and Refinding Newhaven Beach, working towards a site specific co-created community musical/opera for 2028. 

We are pleased to have received funding from University of Brighton, funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC), part of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI); East Sussex County Council Public Health; South Downs National Park; BN9/Towner Gallery; Sussex University; Newhaven and Lewes Town Councils; the Chalk Cliff Trust; and an Anita's Room Residency at Brighton Festival and Dome.
