My Friend, The Mountain
Cath Barrett • Professional company
About Cath Barrett
A solo show written and performed by Cath Barrett. Skye finds safety, comfort and friendship in the hills of Scotland, and when her life begins to unravel the Mountain becomes her trusted confidant — a place to walk alone but never lonely, where she has the freedom to feel and talk and be heard. A love letter to the hills of Scotland, exploring the release they give from the pressures of hustle culture, and the quiet power of putting one foot in front of the other. Running 55 minutes at Fern Studio, suitable for audiences aged 14 and over. Free to attend.
Why see this show?
A solo show with real warmth that speaks to anyone who has found solace outdoors. Cath Barrett's new writing makes a heartfelt case for the simple, healing act of walking in the hills.
