You are here! Where is here?

Old Man Jakob is lost and alone, he tells us. No map, apart from memories of the Mappa Mundi. But how can a map from the thirteenth century really get him back “here”

But alone? Who then is the young figure who walks at his side? An echo from the past or a guide sent to get Jakob back “here”?

Ultimately, Jakob’s journey is not just a search for a physical return. It’s more about coming to terms with change in the life maps we create wherever - and whoever - we are.

YOU ARE HERE is about those maps we make of the world outside of us – and inside. And what happens when the two start to get a bit frayed at the edges.

YOU ARE HERE is about memory, music – and maps. And how the three are interlinked inside our heads

YOU ARE HERE is serious comedy with its fair share of thought-provoking language combined with some whacky slapstick humour.
