Spoken-Word-Say-hiARC, Stockton: Wednesday 10 June, 7.30pm
Say Hi to the Rivers and the Mountains is a new show written by best-selling novelist Jonathan Coe and indie-pop innovators The High Llamas. Set on a brutal 1960s council estate, the story touches upon themes of community, adolescent love, growing old and above all the inexorable rise of consumerism. Led by Sean O’Hagan, The High Llamas will play live on stage, providing a continuous soundtrack as the story unfolds.
Jonathan is the author of several novels including What a Carve Up! (1994) and The Rotters' Club (2001) which was successfully adapted for BBC television. The High Llamas formed in the 90s and released a number of highly acclaimed albums featuring marimbas, nylon-string guitars and distinctive vintage synthesizer effects.
