The Performance Path

Starting from Helen Garden, this path takes you down steep stairs to Holywell beach. It pauses in the Italian Gardens, follows the seafront promenade, and finishes at Towner Gallery. Along the way, you will see a dancer perform for you. This dancing tour guide will identify features of the performance locations and tell you how these inspire her movements. Please bring your own earphones to enjoy the music provided for each performance.
