City council-funded arts organisations win major awards

Exeter has featured highly at a top arts awards ceremony in London.

Two city-council funded arts organisations were awarded major prizes at the Clore Prize fund - held at the Natural History Museum.

Exeter's Bike Shed Theatre won £50,000 to support their residency programme.

Dorset-based 'Extraordinary Bodies' also benefited.  They performed their show 'Weighting' last year on Cathedral green to an audience of 4,000.  They've been awarded £100,000
