Robert (1849)

About

Friday 25th October | 2024 | Run time: 15 minutes

£3

Robert, a Victorian man from the Midlands, has always been enchanted by the coast.

Throughout his life he has been drawn to the sea, so much so that he became a cartographer, spending his days walking and drawing the coastline. But the sea is a long way from his home in the Midlands, and on one particular walk along the coast Robert is forced to question where it is he truly belongs.

Join Nottingham Playhouse for a unique sensory folktale experience about the Midlands and the pull of the world outside of what you've always known. Using multi-sensory methods of storytelling, including soundscapes, live foley, touch, and integrated audio description, this show is a gentle ode to the known and allure of the unknown, made and performed for small groups.
