Join Gravida Collective in this Shared Walk.

Wearing what matters, and imagining how we might walk more gently into the future.

It might be a piece of clothing, a word, a symbol, a colour, a texture, or something you’ve made. It doesn’t need to be perfect. It just needs to be yours. You can walk alone, with others, or simply witness.

After touring 20+ countries and delighting thousands of audiences, Meet Fred returns to the UK for its 10th anniversary tour. This darkly hilarious, critically acclaimed production follows Fred, a cloth puppet just trying to live an ordinary life—get a job, find love, be part of society. But with his Puppetry Living Allowance under threat, Fred’s world spirals out of control. How do you hold on to independence when the system is pulling the strings?


Tickets go on sale Friday 23rd January!
