We are delighted to be the hosts of Earthkin events and seasonal celebrations.
It is always a night to remember with music and performances to fit the season.
Ellie is also a celebrant and leads handfastings some of which take place at our centre in our replica historic buildings.
In a field on the outskirts of Cranborne village, there is a hill, and it has a door…
One of Dorset’s best kept secrets, the Earthouse is a 200-seat theatre – lit by lamplight and fire-light. Here audiences sit on wooden benches, under an earth roof, held up by 21 huge oak tree trunks… they come to listen to stories. The Ancient Technology Centre works with the Crick Crack Club to bring some of the finest contemporary performance storytellers to this fabulous off-beat venue – turning it into a cinema of the imagination.
‘I was spellbound – I don’t use the word lightly’ THE TIMES
