Performance – On the Black Hill, Benderloch

On Saturday 26th September at 7.30pm at Benderloch Village Hall the AJ Theatre Company present ‘On the Black Hill’, bringing a distinctive style to a new adaptation of Bruce Chatwin’s lyrical, much loved novel.

Lewis and Benjamin Jones, twin brothers, were born with the dawn of the 20th century. Their world is rich in the oddities, the wonders, the passions, the deceits and tragedies of human experience.

In this extraordinary story, Bruce Chatwin has captured every nuance of their landscape and the lives and souls of the people who live there. Through the evocation of place and season, in its sense of the delicate balance between people and nature, this moving and humorous story gives meaning and value to the major themes of life. It is a story that is as personal to everyone who sees it as it is to the two brothers.

The play is accompanied throughout by specially composed music, played on the cello

Tickets £8 on the door.
