PRESENTED by Imogen Stirling and Vanishing Point in co-production with Beacon Arts Centre and Shetland Arts, Love the Sinner will visit Mareel on Thursday 5 September & Friday 6 September.
It is a beautifully produced fusion of performance poetry, visual theatre and live electronic music, that reflects on the meaning of being human today.
In it, we meet seven extraordinary characters as they struggle to comprehend their place in a world bladed with criticism and obsessed with self-betterment. They seek solace, or something else, in a pulsing, brimming Scottish city, as the water rises and the banks of the river threaten to burst.
Written and performed by performance poet Imogen Stirling, with live music from electronic artist Sonia Killmann, this collaboration with Vanishing Point was a huge hit with audiences and critics in 2023.
Tickets for Love the Sinner cost £10 and are available to purchase online here, in-person at the Box Office in Mareel, or by calling on 01595 745 500 during opening hours of 10am-9pm, Tuesday - Sunday.
