Arts Alive is delighted to offer Herefordshire audiences the chance to see an exceptional piece of theatre: Scorched, by locally-based company, Open Sky.

After the success of shows such as Hairy Fairy Tails for younger audiences, this talented company presents a moving and beautiful performance for adults and teenagers.

A decorated WWII veteran of a bloody desert war sits in the armchair of his rest home, his memories tattooed upon his body. Dementia strikes. Ink comes alive as stories of love and war. Once more his mind turns to the desert sands.

Scorched uses new writing, physical theatre, projection, sound design and music to create a challenging and beautiful piece, and was inspired by the writer’s grandfather’s life.

Open Sky brings all its dramatic skills to bear on Scorched at The Market Theatre, Ledbury, HR8 2AQ at 8pm Saturday, April 8th. Tickets cost £10; and are available via the website: www.themarkettheatre.com. Suitable for ages 12 an up. For further details, visit: www.artsalive.co.uk
