Synopsis: | What is it about the seaside that brings out the most unusual in people? Wales' leading exponent of contemporary performance and installation, Marc Rees, is bringing together a group of artists from around the world to create a multi sensory journey through a quirky Welsh seaside town. Barmouth's location on the west coast of Wales and lying between a mountain range and the sea on the mouth of the river Mawddach makes it arguably one of the most beautiful places in Wales. It rests just within the south west corner of Snowdonia National Park, and is steeped in a history rich with connections to the shipping and slate industries. However, as with so many similar seaside towns, over the summer months an influx of tourists from the Midlands and the North-West give way to a winter of harder times in Barmouth. Chapels on the main street have become Pound Shops', with cash registers in the pulpit and giant inflatable crocodiles hanging from the church organ. Making their base in one such chapel, Marc Rees' performers will take people on very unusual and unexpected guided tours of the town. | |||||
