The project commenced in Spring 2013 with an intensive period of research conducted by MED Theatre’s Young Company. The research unearthed a wealth of information from Dartmoor’s past, from the internment of conscientious objectors in Dartmoor Prison, to the halting of the building of Castle Drogo. Inspired by their findings, the young company went on to devise, script and perform their own play, ‘Road to Nowhere’, performed first in Moretonhampstead Parish Hall, then as a site-specific performance at Castle Drogo in partnership with the National Trust.
