Bar Tape
By Harry Brewer
A piece of joyful and inventive storytelling that explores growing up in a rural town, family, and the joy of riding a bike.
Bar Tape explores the formative years of Davidson - a young,
enthusiastic cyclist growing up in early 1980s rural Britain, now
reflected upon by his older self. Through a variety of spoken word
storytelling techniques, original live music, and
transformative light, the play traces Davidson’s journey of
navigating the big dreams of youth, social expectations, and his
relationships with his girlfriend and grandad. As the pressure of
success builds, he finds himself caught like a rabbit in the
headlights, unsure of which path to take. The play asks how paths are formed - sometimes deliberately, sometimes by habit - and how we live
with the choices that follow.
A piece of joyful and inventive storytelling that explores growing up in a rural town, family, and the joy of riding a bike.
