Threads – Saturday

Written and performed by Ursula Leveaux Saturday 1 November | 11-11.30am and 1-1.30pm

Performances of Threads will be popping up in and around TBTL on Saturday and Sunday. Drop into the box office to find out more.

Threads explores the way music can be woven through a life, using personal experience, a bassoon and a loop pedal. It is a story about living and learning, unexpected paths and places, and about finding your way through.

A shorter version of Threads was first performed at Open Space at Theatre By The Lake in April 2024.

Original script development and direction, Rosemary Harris.
