£8 / £4.50 / £3.50

THE BRIDGE

A remarkable story traced back through family memories, of the short life and lost work of Paduthottu Mathen John, a poet and author from pre-Independence Kerala, India.  Defying convention and poverty to realise his dreams, the fortunes of his family are shaped, paving their later journey to the west.

Originally commissioned for Glasgow’s 2014 Cultural Programme, The Bridge blends theatrical storytelling, sound design and projections, to uncover tales of courage and survival.  A poetic, political and poignant solo play, which explores who we are, what home is and how we can live forever.

“…a rich and meditative piece of family history.”

THE SCOTSMAN

“…a finely wrought piece… expressed through an expertly judged performance by George.”
