The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry
A musical adaptation of Rachel Joyce's multi-million selling novel about retired pensioner Harold Fry, who sets out to mail a letter and ends up walking 600+ miles from Devon to Berwick-upon-Tweed to visit his dying friend. His unexpected journey becomes a profound pilgrimage of love, redemption, and second chances. Back home, his wife Maureen embarks on her own parallel journey, one that might just bring them back together. Music and lyrics by chart-topping indie musician Passenger, book by Rachel Joyce, directed by Katy Rudd.
