The Giant's Lair

The Giant's Lair

June-July 2019

Collaboratively built by Fay Burnett, Josh Pritchard & John Palser.

Amphitheatre space crafted from the surrounding fallen Spruce. We planked the trees in situ, and harvested the willow 20 metres away.

 

The space is a haven, quietly in the woods. A space to host performance, to take a quiet moment, to be with the woodland. It is a space for creation. We hosted performances here during our performance and arts event Coed Roots & Legends, 2019.

The Giant Steps

Up which the Spider and the Bramble Wizard climb, and sit in the late afternoon sharing the day's tales, and on which the audience sit to watch the performances.
