I was sad to have missed this. It sounds like it was quite a profound little evening. I especially love the Mother Mountain part of your write up, I am now rather misty-eyed :)
It was brilliant and also wasn’t sold out either which was a shame! She’s still on tour - her dates on her website, so if you can get to it, please do!!
I know Jules! She's brilliant. I didn't know she was touring with this and it's a shame I missed it as I'm close to Chester, I wonder if I can catch her elsewhere. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I fully agree with what you said about older women - I am incredibly lucky to be a part of a community - the climbing club I talked briefly about in my most recent post - that spans an age range of mid-20s to 100 years old and I feel a deep awe and inspiration for these older women who have lead these incredibly rich and exciting lives. I want to learn everything from them. I want to sit on the floor and listen for hours while they tell me their stories. I wish that every young woman could find her equivalent. Good luck finding your mother mountains!
No way!!! Small world - she did also say she was a climber! Yes, I think the other performances might be going back up to the lakes theatre at some point, so if you can get to it, I would!
It sounds like a beautiful performance. I'm interested, how do you feel the performance would translate to a non-runner or somebody not in that community?
