Workshop 7th - 12th August
Performance 2 pm, 12th August

 

An ancient rope-bridge collapses in the middle of the day. Five apparently unconnected people are plunge to their deaths.

Who were these people? How did they come to be in this place at this time? Could they have avoided the Bridge? Why did God decide now was their time to go? Was it an act of God or was it simply coincidence? Every day we live go about our business knowing at any moment our number could be up – and yet we live. How can we avoid the tragedies, accidents and disasters that are so common in our world? Can we avoid them? When we are being controlled by the powers of gods, chance, fate, coincidence and destiny, can we cheat death? What is your story and how will it end?

"There is a land of the living and a land of the dead and the bridge is love, the only survival, the only meaning." Thornton Wilder
