The Ferry, The Dog, and The Fading Folk

Jules is on a ferry. There she meets an old man and his dog. The three set out to climb a hill together and everything is fine until a storm takes them down a whole other journey.

What starts as a day trip to the Isle of Arran spirals into a chaotic odyssey through grief lust and lore - navigating a giant with a taste for salted grief / faeries who dance you through the night / and shadows of old stories that lure you in with their song.

This is not a story about healing; it’s about running away into chaos, seeking the ones we’ve lost, losing yourself in the process.

And finding out that it’s not about that / that you’re not that lost anyway / that you were just being a bit dramatic / that it’s okay to be the person who’s left / that even though it looks good and feels good, it still might want to eat you.


And choosing not to die-
Wait, no.
To live.

★★★★ "Frances’ performance is compelling. Her words and reactions have brought this empty stage to life." - Adventures in Theatreland
★★★★ “Amber Frances is 60 minutes of escapism, adventure and catharsis. [...] Using evocative text, physical theatre and pared-back direction the audience hangs on to every word”
