Bounced Back: The Creative Community Catalysts Supporting the Performing Arts with The Black Cherry Theatre Cafe’s Rachel Maddix and John Davis #S1E5

BCP Council's Official Podcast

The creative arts endured more than a fair share of strife during the pandemic, so to see The Black Cherry Theatre Cafe emerging stronger is an incredibly inspiring sight.

Rachel Maddix and Jon Davis have created a hub which serves not only local audience members, but catalyses national opportunities for creatives in the BCP region.

We hear from Rachel and Jon on episode 5 of our mini-series, and hear how they’ve used grant funding to grow a unique theatre community in the heart of Boscombe and beyond.

This episode covers:

  • How The Black Cherry works closely with other creative organisations for collective benefit to the community
  • Their assistance to local creatives as a physical hub throughout the pandemic and beyond
  • Access to art for both audience members and those aspiring to enter performing arts
  • Work with the National Theatre to become their writing hub for the South
