Here are some of the wonderful audience comments for Echoes and Embers by Ezra Gray and Giles W Bennett (4-5 July).

Booking: wegottickets.com/f/13863

Co-promoted with Oxford Festival of the Arts and OVADA.

Funders: @artscouncilengland.bsky.social @prsfoundation.bsky.social @ppluk.bsky.social
Audience quote: "Very emotional. The most touching thing I have experienced in ages. Beautiful, utterly absorbing and full of feeling.” Audience quote: "It shows what we can do as a species if we stop, look and listen. A mimicry of the wonder of nature. An intense and intimate example of play.” Audience quote: "Ethereal, otherworldly, introspective and magical. Like stepping into another realm.” Audience quote: "Like there is more to reality than we experience day to day."
