The "Allegory of Love"

(2001 - Highbridge House Community Resource Centre, Plough Arts Centre Adult Drama Group, Abbey Gateway Club Barnstaple, Marland School for Children with emotional & behavioural difficulties,& North Devon College)

This was one of our biggest productions to date. Inspired by seven large figurative paintings by Wolf + Water’s Peter Stiles depicting the arrival, miracles & subsequent departure of a North Devon saint, the show brought together over 30 performers to create two interpretations of the story that were performed to sell out audiences.

Quote:
“There was so much to see in that show I wish I could have watched in ten times. It was like being taken on a journey in & out of 50 peoples imaginations. It was fantastic.”
