One of three performances of Flooded! at St Edmundsbury Cathedral by 240 schoolchildren on Thursday and Friday of last week. The show combined The Fools’ Flood by Neil Clayton — a new play about a historic flood in Bury St Edmunds — and Benjamin Britten’s one-act opera for amateur performers, Noye’s Fludde. The project was funded by Arts Council England and The Vestey Trust. Among those involved creatively were Britten Pears Arts and the Suffolk Music Service
