Description
Have you ever fallen in love with someone across the globe only to be held captive in your own country? From award-winning artist Britt Plummer comes a painfully relatable and heartbreakingly hilarious autobiographical new work. An adventurer, dreamer and professional problem-solver, Britt sets out on an emotionally charged quest of romantic revelation and raw resilience to defy bureaucracy, hurdling the intricacies of modern relationships whilst attempting to maintain what remains of her sanity. A delicately powerful journey of storytelling, clowning and physical comedy, Britt Plummer invites you to find out if true Paradise really is a Fool's errand.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.
