The Tale
This cross-artform project took audiences on a journey across three towns in Torbay, South Devon and spanned visual art installations, sound-works, sculpture, immersive theatre, music and dance. The writer and broadcaster Phillip Hoare, winner of the Samuel Johnson Prize for non-fiction was commissioned to create the central text ‘Falling since Noon’ which acted as the inspiration for nine other artists.

“Multi-sensory, genre-hopping, participative and provocative, the Tale puts Torbay on the map.”
