THEATRE Re present the wordless tale, Blind Man’s Song, at The Courtyard next week.
Following sell-out runs at the 2015 London International Mime Festival, Latitude and the Edinburgh Fringe, Theatre Re (The Gambler, The Little Soldiers) present Blind Man’s Song, a tale about the power of imagination that blends together physical theatre, mime, sound, illusions and a live musical score.
As an old blind man takes unsteady steps around a room, he recalls an encounter that triggers his memories and imagination and, a story of love, courage, hope and unquenchable vision unfolds.
Blind Man’s Song is a tale about one man’s rage against his world of darkness. Inspired by the paintings of René Magritte, the dead-end word of Samuel Beckett and interviews with blind and visually impaired people, it witnesses the power of the body to communicate without words.
Blind Man’s Song will be at The Courtyard on Wednesday, May 18 at 7.30pm. To book, call the box office on 01432 340555 or visit courtyard.org.uk
