About

The Knotted Project's Forge Festival is returning for the fourth year, promising a day filled with live dance, theatre performances and so much more at Windermere Jetty Museum.

This year's Forge Festival will showcase emerging talent from across Cumbria, working alongside established professional artists, creating original pieces of dance, physical theatre, spoken word, and more, all themed around the "Life Through a Lens: Young People in 2025".

You can expect to see:
* Performance companies showcasing their incredible live performances
* Three new solo performances from emerging Early Career Artists
* A youth-driven film exploring the festival's theme, showcasing the voices of young people in 2025
