Following a highly successful tour in 2014, Riding Lights Theatre Company returns with its Passion Play, Inheritance, weaving the strands of the biblical Passion into a dramatic narrative, exploring in particular some of Jesus’ encounters with women in the gospels.
Inheritance evokes the community where Jesus lived, the people who knew him best, the powers that brought him to execution. And in the shadow of the cross it casts light on some of the women who Jesus stands alongside, sharing in their suffering.
See Inheritance performed in Exeter on Saturday 21st March, 7.30pm...

Every year at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month we remember those who gave their lives during the First World War. But how much thought do we give to those who survived and to those at home who strived to support the war effort.
Dartmoor Life in the First World War provides a unique snapshot of what life was like on Dartmoor during the First World War – how life for many continued as normal, how farming changed and women came to work on farms and in the forests. It covers the recruitment marches and the wounded soldiers who were brought to Dartmoor to recuperate as...
What might happen if Castle Drogo was left to the elements? From 9 March, a perfect glass ‘drip’ is suspended in a trophy cabinet, a room where Dartmoor appears to have taken over. As the conservation project to save Castle Drogo enters its final two years, artists have taken inspiration from the history and stories of this striking 20th century castle overlooking the Teign Valley. Each artist has taken a very different approach – with everything from sculpture, interactive gadgets, photography and film to new interpretations of objects in the collection. Visitors can look forward to new...
Stagecoach Southwest have announced that, from 30th March 2015, they will be making changes to their B bus service.
The changes have been prompted by the end of 12 months of Devon County Council local sustainable transport funding which saw the B service extend to Dawlish in order to attract new users to/from Matford.
From the end of the month the B service will, instead, revert to finishing at Exminster as the patronage has not materialised which would sustain the extension to the route in the longer term.
A new 2B service will, however, maintain popular peak hour...

Experts are today warning of the negative implications that can come from using insect repellents that do not contain at least 20% DEET, and are fearful that young travellers are not fully aware of the potential diseases rife in popular travel destinations.
A new survey has found that 78% of people do not research current diseases that they are at risk of catching in areas they are travelling to. Further results from the study show that 93% are opposed to using insect repellent with a concentration of at least 20%.
Many diseases that young travellers are prone to catching...
