A Walk at the Edge of the World

Award-winning show, A Walk at the Edge of the World, is on tour again this May.

“A carefully constructed dramatic affirmation of the transcendental power of putting one foot in front of the other” The Herald

Text by Nicholas Bone
Design by Sans façon
Performed by Ian Cameron
                                
“I began walking on May 24th 2001.” A man invites the audience to come on a walk with him. When they reach their destination, he talks about walks he has taken, showing images of places he has visited.  Audience and performer find themselves led on another journey, as the hidden secrets of the landscape and the constantly shifting border between land and sea remind us that the past is always with us, whether we realise it or not.
Created in collaboration with the international environmental arts practice Sans façon, this award-winning production from Magnetic North is a reflection on the act of walking, exploring memory, place and the state of mind created when we walk.

For touring dates and reviews go to Magnetic North.

Originally produced in association with Mull Theatre

The ceremony took place Sunday 24 August at the Arts Club, sadly we weren't able make it in person, but were there in spirit.
