The Wild Shore | Burn the Curtain - Wednesday, August 20

  • Bucks Mills EX39 5DW United Kingdom (map)
 
 

A promenade theatre adventure by the sea…

In a quiet coastal village, little has changed for centuries. Life follows the rhythms of the sea. The villagers rely on the sea for their living, and pay little heed to what happens inland, or to the country's changing laws. After all, it is not just fish that come in from the sea...

Once a year, on this very night, bottles wash ashore carrying messages from those lost to the waves. Villagers and travellers gather to hear these voices from beyond the deep. But tonight, something is different. The newly formed Customs Posse is closing in, determined to capture the elusive leader of an infamous gang of smugglers.

Join Burn the Curtain for an evening of mystery, magic, and adventure. Meet shipwrecked sailors, fearless fisherwomen, shapeshifters and determined law enforcers for an unforgettable night of promenade theatre by the sea.
