70% of women in the UK have experienced sexual harassment in public. Meanwhile, a social media poll finds that, in a hypothetical world without men for a day, the overwhelming majority of women said they’d use the opportunity to go for walk alone after dark.
Taking these findings as a starting point, A Walk in the Park is a participatory performance aimed at exploring our shared experience of public spaces. Combining authentic conversations, startling statistics and choreographed movement to create an atmospheric exploration of what it can feel like to walk alone in the dark, the performance ends with an invitation to the audience to leave the space together and walk through a nearby park or green space.
During this shared walk, participants are facilitated to share their experiences and build an installation of creative reflections. All voices and contributions are welcome, and audience members are free to participate as much or as little as they wish.
“Beyond anything, this show makes me feel seen.”
“The perfect form to start a conversation that can initiate change.”
