(If you attended our Old Mother Thames event in April, please note that this event is back by popular demand as part of the Totally Thames Festival)
Come and weave stories with us on the banks of Old Mother Thames! What worlds roam beneath her surface? What journeys crisscross her underwater realms? Let's peer deeper into the pulsing artery of our metropolis, down into the digestive tract of our city body.
Syncing with the moon-driven rhythms that ebb and flow, we will explore how she churns up the past with every tidal rise and fall, burping up trinkets of eras gone by. Let's submerge ourselves in muddy imaginings, knitting together the tails of migrating eels, lost whales and cockney oysters. What can we learn from these ambassadors from our shared world? What happens when we meet them halfway?
This Walking Trees will explore a sonic journey that we'll ask you to become part of through storytelling, it'll be imaginative, playful and experimental! All are welcome, no previous art-making experience is necessary. Expect some listening, writing, drawing and meditative wanderings.
Materials are included in the ticket price.
Tickets are tiered based on income please message if you’d like to come but can’t afford the price- we want everyone to enjoy.
