Project Brief

This project transforms Bewdley's riverside into a living stage. Audiences, guided by headphones, will walk a curated route while listening to a haunting, original soundscape of layered voices—historical residents, river workers, and mythical figures—each telling their fragment of Bewdley's story. The performance culminates in a live, silent tableau performed by actors on the riverbank, creating a powerful connection between place, memory, and community. This format taps into the growing trend of immersive and site-specific theatre, offering a fresh way to experience local heritage. It's a unique opportunity for a director and actor to create a portfolio piece that demonstrates innovative storytelling, location-based creativity, and audience engagement, all within the intimate scale of a small team.
