This is a story about the cold.

On a winter’s night, a woman goes out walking in the snow and encounters a stranger in a frozen field. The next morning she wakes up and finds that everything has changed.

An intimate storytelling experience in which audiences gather around a miniature model of a snowbound village, An Icy Man draws on northern folklore, myths and legends.

Matthew Bellwood is a Yorkshire-based storyteller, writer and theatre-maker.

I Wish I Was Lonely is the new show from Fringe First winners Hannah Jane Walker (This is Just To Say from last year’s 2s Company festival) and Chris Thorpe (following 2011’s The Oh F*ck Moment) that asks how much of ourselves we’ve given up to the new gods in our pockets.

Hurtling

I have a message for you from the past. Ok, it’s a message from this morning, so it may be the recent past. But it’s still the past.

Hurtling is an outdoor performance for one person on the roof of Harrogate Theatre, with a cassette player and headphones. It’s a glimpse of fleeting moments as they zoom past; an attempt to grasp at a slippery present. This is an invitation to remember a previous version of yourself, to imagine a future version and to wonder who that makes you now. We’ll start with a story. Your story.

TICKETS: £5LOCATION: Up on the roofTIMES: 2pm, 2.40pm, 3.20pm, 4pm, 4.40pm, 5.20pm & 6pmCAPACITY: 1DURATION: 60 minutes
