Walk a Mile
A dance-based theatre experience about shoes and the creatures that wear them

Walk a mile in their shoes...

Meet a mother training daily for the zombie apocalypse, a museum project manager captivated by function over form, an entrepreneur trying to maintain her femininity in a man's world, a victorian prude stripper and the kid who guides them all.
