Produced to form part of ‘Robert Lewis Stevenson Day’ 2019.
Performed at St Augustine’s Chapel, Edinburgh – November 2019
Inspired by Robert Lewis Stevenson’s poem Foreign Lands, the play discussed the delicate relationship between travel and personal growth, and how one directly affects the other.
The central premise of the play was that as individuals we feel that ‘when we are comfortable in our environment, we find it a daunting task to uproot,’ even if this has a guarantee of improving our current situation.
