THE DREAMING
by Thresh & Bray Theatre

“Enter into a world beyond knowing and float down the river into an entangled landscape moving between polarities of the messy and beautiful human experience.” 

Four women enter a dreamscape, inviting you into imaginal experiences of Dartmoor, awakening their collective and playful relationship with the wild world. 

Devised over the course of 18 months through a process of place-based improvisation this piece explores the celebration of living in a female body, nature, creativity and the exploration of connection to where we live. 

This is a multidisciplinary performance spanning physical theatre, music, clowning, dance, ritual, storytelling, puppetry and fashion. It is a rich tapestry of the varied creative practices of this group of women, sewn into a dream-like journey across Dartmoor.

This piece was first performed to sell out audiences at Moor Imagination Collective in Buckfastleigh and will be performed again on May 22nd 2026 at the Exeter Pheonix.
