Two generations of professional North Devonian theatre makers join forces to create this brilliant, vivid and hilarious new play which asks, “what if the climate changed in North Devon?
How to begin the conversation? With facts and figures? With personal stories? With music and song, giants leaps of the imagination? With calls to action? Maybe all these things. But what’s going to be most useful?
Crows, seals, Government Ministers, a farmer’s daughter, a Hocking’s Ice Cream seller, a protester on a mission, a wise woman of the woods, the Lady of the Lake, a Suffragette, a woman who plants Sea Grass, the callous crew of a sinking ship – even the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse – all of them jostle for our attention, all with an opinion to express. But do any of them hold the answer?
Multi Story is north Devon’s longest-established theatre company and Theatre Workhouse is its newest. They have joined forces to create a new play, along with award-winning writer Daniel Bye.
Music, physical storytelling and startling imagination abound. It’s Devon, Jim. But not as you know it.
