"I urge you to see a performance tonight that is imaginative, diverse, thought-provoking, entirely centered on the literal and figurative meanings of the simple act of walking... It's a production that invites discussion on strutting, marching, resisting, dancing, exploring, oppressing with our real and metaphorical feet." - Barbara Johns, Audience member

"What are the stories that are written under my feet, under yours?" - Bheki Maphumolo, performer & Morwenna Bosch, Assistant Director
