Never one to take the easy option, Mark decided to go rambling along the Israeli Barrier for 9 weeks. The border is a wall, overseen by watchtowers with signs of ‘warning of imminent death’. This is Mark Thomas' story about Walking the Wall, six arrests, too much hummus and a simple question... ‘Can you ever get away from it all with a good walk?’

Accompanied by live introduction by Mark and then a post-show Q+A – please leave your questions in the chatroom as the show is on.

20% of your ticket purchase will go to Lakeside Arts.

It's hard to imagine a better show... you will hang on Thomas' every word." 
★★★★★ Edinburgh Festival Magazine

Quotation mark

Thomas has pretty much pushed his brand of intrusive and peripatetic comedy to the limit." 
★★★★★ The Telegraph

Quotation mark

Thomas effectively juxtaposes the laughs and silencing horror... a frequently moving tale."
