ELEVEN Arches, the charity behind open air show Kynren: an epic tale of England at Bishop Auckland will hold an open call for volunteers tonight.

Anyone who is interested in joining the 1,500 strong team of cast and crew for the 2018 season can learn more about the attraction and roles that are available.

The open event will be held at the showground at Flatts Farm, on the edge of Bishop Auckland, DL14 7SF, from 6.30pm to 8.30pm.

Volunteers will get to learn new skills from pyrotechnics to costume making from industry experts in those fields.

No registration is required, people are asked to simply arrive ten minutes before the start and wear comfortable shoes and outdoor clothing.
