Months of preparation. Huge commitment. Dedication, collaboration and unstoppable enthusiasm - and absolutely smashed it. 🎭

Jesus Christ Superstar was a massive success, finishing with a sell-out Saturday night performance.

The students of AUB and BU should be incredibly proud. 👏

This Saturday at Palace Court Theatre, AUB is hosting The Red Dress, as part of a full day free exhibition.

The Red Dress is a 14-year, award-winning global, collaborative embroidery project.  

The Red Dress project, conceived by British artist Kirstie Macleod provides an artistic platform for individuals, particularly women, and communities around the world, many of whom are vulnerable and/or live in poverty, to tell their stories through embroidery.

The dress has been worked on by 367 women/girls, 11 men/boys and two non-binary artists from 51 countries, earning it a place in the Guinness World Records 2025 for the largest collaborative embroidery project.

The Red Dress exhibition will be available to see from 11:00 to 16:00 on Saturday 18 October and is free to attend.

It is part of a full day event exhibited alongside felted animations produced by Jessica Jacobs' AHRC-funded Storytelling for All Project.

The whole day event is curated by AUB's Dr Emma Shercliff.
