A Rain Walk

A walk in the rain

  • Presented by: Melbourne Fringe

We invite you to a rain walk – accompanied by the recorded voices of children from across Australia and New Zealand. With their guidance, the rainfall will become your own private theatre, a space in which to observe, imagine and play.

Because we are no better at predicting when it might rain than you are, everything you need to experience this interactive audio walk is contained within a little box that is posted to you when you purchase a ticket. Keep it safe until the weather turns.

Then, whether in a drizzle or a deluge, alone or with others, we invite you to step outside, feel the rain on your face, and think about your place in a world that is changing so swiftly around you.

Please provide your full mailing address details when purchasing your ticket so we can mail out your gift box (Australia wide.) A link to the audio will be sent to you with your booking confirmation and a transcript is also available on request. The piece will involve being outside in the rain for approximately 40 minutes, including around 20 minutes of walking, so bring an umbrella!

A Rain Walk is commissioned by Festival of Colour and Melbourne Fringe, with ArtPlay and House of Muchness. Originally commissioned in the UK and Ireland by Dublin Fringe, the Ark and Norfolk & Norwich Festival, with commissioning support from The Place.
