Sand

Set against the dramatic backdrop of Devon’s coastline, Sand follows Dylan and Heather as they navigate the complexities of living with dementia. Together, they uncover profound truths about love, memory, and resilience, while coastal erosion symbolises life’s inevitable changes.

Created by the acclaimed Kook Ensemble, Sand is a non-verbal circus theatre show that blends acrobatic skill with meticulously crafted storytelling. Through visually striking, emotionally resonant performances, the company brings the experiences of people living with dementia to life, offering audiences a deeply moving experience. A must watch!

Kook Ensemble presents Sand. Funded by Arts Council England. Supported by the Generate Programme by The National Theatre and co-commissioned by Corn Exchange and Landmark Theatres.

“Sand is a spectacular performance, one that deeply connects with audiences of all ages and backgrounds. It was impossible not to be swept up in the emotional tide of Sand.”
