About the show
Barbara Sellars, author of Iona with Love, presents a spoken word talk at Hall as part of Edinburgh Festival Fringe. A photographer, writer and longtime visitor to the island, Sellars shares her passion for Iona's natural beauty — its exquisite colours and ever-changing light — through her sensory experiences of the island's varied moods: from sunshine to storm, coast to hinterland, jewel-like pebbles to flowering machair, and from the colours of dawn to the last light on the sand. The show runs for 60 minutes, costs £10 and is suitable for audiences aged 12 and over.
Why see this show?
A rich and evocative spoken portrait of Iona, told through the eyes of someone who knows it intimately. For anyone drawn to wild landscapes and the ways light and season transform a place, this is a quietly beautiful 60 minutes.
