An exquisite and moving physical theatre duet, The Ballad tells the story of a young couple who, by a chance meeting, are destined to be bound forever by love. Inspired by the storytelling, imagery and yearning of traditional Scottish ballads, it combines theatre with aerial work and live music. The Ballad was originally created as a co-production with The Lemon Tree in 2005. It returns now by popular demand.

'a deeply affecting physical theatre piece with arresting flying sequences. It's a mini-masterwork that slowly catches fire until it completely engulfs you. A major theatrical event that shouldn't be missed.' Press and Journal.
