Hitch

Work:: Hitch (S01430474819)

On the 8th July 2009, the leaders of the eight most powerful countries in the world met for three days in the earthquake ravaged Italian town of L'Aquila in Italy to make plans for the future of our society and our planet. On 27th June, I hitched a lift from Glasgow, alone, to be there too. Featuring music from experimental pop duo Over The Wall, Hitch is an intimate storytelling performance which recounts the experience of this journey, asking questions about the meaning and purpose of political protest, the limits of personal power and the possibility of change. Developed with the support of The Arches and PlaY.
