Set against the dramatic backdrop of Devon’s coastline, SAND follows Dylan and Heather as they navigate the complexities of living with dementia. Together, they uncover profound truths about love, memory and resilience, while coastal erosion symbolises life’s inevitable changes. Created by the acclaimed Kook Ensemble, Sand is a non-verbal circus theatre show that blends acrobatic skill with meticulously crafted storytelling. Through visually striking, emotionally resonant performances, the company brings the experiences of people living with dementia to life, offering audiences a deeply moving experience. A must watch!
