Saturday & Sunday | 11:00 - 16:00 | Free

This installation will offer audiences an introduction to Italo Calvino’s book “If on a winter’s night a traveller…”.

The story: You go into a bookshop and buy If on a Winter’s Night a Traveller. You like it. But alas there is a printer’s error in your copy. You take it back to the shop and get a replacement. But the replacement seems to be a totally different story. You try to track down the original book you were reading but end up with a different narrative again. This remarkable novel leads you through many different books including a detective adventure, a romance, a satire, an erotic story, a diary and a quest. But the real hero is you, the reader.

Audiences will be welcome to explore the installation throughout the weekend but will also be invited to return for a performance at the following times:

  • 12:15
  • 14:15
  • 19:00

Venue: Solley’s Orchard
