WALDEN
Thu 10th September, 8pm
“My purpose in going to Walden was not to live cheaply or dearly, but to live deliberately”
On 4th July 1845, Henry David Thoreau walked into the woods near his hometown of Concord, Massachusetts, and decided to stay. He built a hut near Walden pond and for the next 2 years he attempted to live entirely by his own resources. Walden, his account of his life in the woods, is one of the most extraordinary and unclassifiable books ever written. Magnetic North’s production adapts the book as an event that is part performance art and part philosophy class.
"Works beautifully...a finely pitched performance from Ewan Donald"
