“This is pure storytelling, we will go anywhere you take us. Moving and surprising and funny.” Emma Rice, Artistic Director Emma Rice Company
Mary Bryant’s true-life story is an unforgettable tale of courage and resilience. Against impossible odds, she leads one of Maritime’s most daring escapes—a tale of passion, bravery, and survival.
“One of the most astonishing one woman shows I have ever seen… just plain bloody brilliant” Fi Read, The Cornishman
The show is an adventure through the senses.
Features unique specially commissioned tunes by Neil Davey and a traditional Cornish soundtrack recorded by Dalla and Radjel.
Oh Bec! Here is a remarkable actress who gives her all … in this one woman show, we feel every emotion, hang on every word, and share real tears, as she maps out a journey of unimaginable physical endurance, accompanied by an urgent drumming and piping soundtrack… The story is completely absorbing… Jenni Balow, Review
