The Gallycrows*

(*Old Dorset for scarecrow)

Watch out for them, they journey through Moors Valley, appearing as if from nowhere with what looks like the world on their backs. Who are they? What do they want? Audiences are invited to meet these interactive characters created especially for Inside Out Dorset by local favourites, Angel Exit Theatre in response to Luke Jerram’s Gaia and the themes of climate emergency, displacement, and journeying.

This wandering duo will surprise and delight the whole family.
