“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
