Confidence Through Creativity
Red Dreams first came about in April 2007 as a memorial fund for our 16 year old son Kyle McManus, who died suddenly of a brain haemorrhage, and will always be his gift to the creative people we deal with.
Red Dreams has rapidly developed over tha past 2 years, thanks to all the contributors, Hartlepool Borough Council, Grant Givers, Marks and Spencers, Tees Valley Community Foundation, Sherburn House, The Working Neighbourhood Fund, and especially all our supporters in the local community. THANK YOU SO MUCH
It is an idea, a creative notion, an opportunity to show the talent the young people have in the North East. We are primarily based in Hartlepool, but we have offered stage time to bands, and singers from all over the North East. It is time to show the country the talent we have in the North East...Red Dreams promises to do this.
In 2009, Red Dreams have put a number of shows on at Hartlepool Town Hall Theatre higlighting local talent:
The North East Talent Showcase had performers from 6 to 19 dancing and singing. With individuals singing original and cover songs , Val Armstrongs School of Performing Arts dancing ballet throught to modern street dancing.
In 2009 so far, we also:
Helped the band LSD gain stage time at Richmond Live 2009.
Helped 'Im Not Google' to play the 'warm up' gig at Middlesbrough Music Live
Have recorded a large number of bands, getting quality North East Talent heard.
Have made a number of short films 'introducing bands' and are also working on a number of short films with young film makers.
