Immersive ancient myth that sets the women centre stage. Plunge into the wild world of the goddess Artemis: an ecstatic encounter with the Dawn, a moonlit path that leads to transformation and a dilemma that only the audience can solve...Join performance storyteller Katy Cawkwell on a path less trodden, as she goes hunting in the wild places to bring you epic tales of women taking their power whatever the consequences.
