WALDEN
This event was held in the past and is no longer available for booking.
Presented by Magnetic North
By Henry David Thoreau
Adapted and directed by Nicholas Bone
On 4th July 1845, Henry David Thoreau walked into the woods near his home town of Concord, Massachusetts and decided to stay. He found a spot next to a lake called Walden Pond and built a hut. For the next two years he attempted to live entirely by his own resources.
Following rave reviews and sell-out performances in 2008 and 2009, Magnetic North once again presents its beautiful one-man adaptation of Thoreau’s classic meditation on self-sufficiency, the individual’s relationship with the environment and the desire ‘not to live cheaply or dearly but to live deliberately’
“Amazing” ***** Edinburgh Evening News
