SUMMARY:Steve Bonham: Stumbling Over Eden
DESCRIPTION:Based upon Steve’s much-loved book of the same name\, Stumbling Over Eden is a one-hour show that combines story and song to celebrate the adventurer\, explorer and vagabond within us all. \nFrom the notion of freedom and the beauty of the trail to the joy of travelling companions and the meaning of home. \nNot just the story of an eccentric journey from the top of the Atlas Mountains to the Sahara desert\, but an invitation to explore just what is adventure? \nFunny\, moving\, authentic\, and – sometimes! – profound\, with great songs\, it is a show like no other. \n“This is a ‘boy’s own’  – and girls! – adventure from the nineteenth century\, acted out and described in the twenty-first century on the doorstep of Europe. \nIn his account of the 540km walk from the High Atlas mountains\, across the Anti Atlas\, then following the exotic river Draa into the Saharan sand dunes\, you will fall into a world and people as fascinating and friendly as any fairy tale.”  Mike McHugo OBE\, co-founder of the Kasbah du Toubkal \nCombine with brunch for a perfect Sunday morning. \nPay What You Can (PWYC)
