In a quiet cabin tucked beside the River Findhorn in Scotland, a girl tries to remember how to tie a fishing fly. Feathers, thread, and memory twist together as the water whispers outside. As she moves through the familiar motions, the space around her begins to stir — objects wake, and the past floods in.
Moon River is a non-verbal solo semi-autobiographical performance by Phoebe Hyder, blending puppetry, movement, and immersive XR to explore grief, memory, and the quiet intimacy of fly fishing. Through a sensory, visual world, the story unfolds without words — delicate, haunting, and deeply human.
A journey into love, loss, and the things we hold onto, spiral in to and experience the world of Moon River.
Moon River will be performed as part of CFT's Future Theatre Makers Festival at The Nest from 14 - 16 August.
