“If you could rename a street of your town after a hope, dream or ambition for the future, what would you choose?”
The Desire Paths is a participatory, story-swapping, map-making performance for public spaces. We chalk out a large, scale map of a town centre and we invite the public to rename the streets of their towns after a hope for the future: personal, political, playful and profound.
The show is remade with local partners and performers in each town and city it visits. Click the links below to see images and films of previous performances, and read a selection of the renamed streets and the stories behind them.
