The Dreamtime Fellrunner

The Dreamtime Fellrunner is a poetic, fun and moving exploration of Dr Julie Carter’s running exploits on the Lakeland fells.

This one-woman show, written and performed by Dr Julie Carter, presents fellrunning as a type of land art and spiritual practice. This is an aesthetic performance which allows people to experience the beauty of a wonderful sport, regardless of their degree of familiarity with the fells and running. Emphasising body-mind-spirit-place connections, the show encounters themes of feminism, land rights, ageism and ableism, history and literature, while carrying us on a journey through the dramatic beauty of the Lakeland fells.

Running time: 100 mins plus interval
