The Flames
Tricky Hat Productions in partnership with Traverse TheatreAbout
What brings a person purpose and reason to their life?
This show will ponder the Japanese concept of ‘Ikigai’. When we find it. Or can’t find it. And when we lose it.
From a tale of being swept away by a current in the sea, extinction and survival, beginnings and endings. Indecision. Discovering a brown suitcase in the attic. Both poignant and humorous, this striking and contemporary mix of storytelling, film, music and performance explores life through its big and little moments.
The Flames is a multi-media performance company for people aged 50+, and has performed across Scotland and Japan.
The Flames is part of the Traverse's £1 Tickets Project.
