HEAL

20 Stories High Community Company

Come and join our first ever Community Company cast in our brand-new show HEAL

 

A group of strangers; each with their own wounds, arrive at a three-day wellbeing retreat promising clarity, connection and transformation. Phones are surrendered. Exercises escalate. And slowly, the cracks begin to show. 

 

As the retreat intensifies, past traumas surface and the line between support and control begins to blur.

 

Blending movement, music with moments of tension and joy. HEAL explores what we carry, what we hide and what happens when we’re finally forced to sit with ourselves.
