This Multi Award winning show, including the Edinburgh Fringe Award in 2021 is a spellbinding hour sharing the insights of Life and the wonder of being present in the beauty of the Moments. Told through the languages of Visual Art, Music and spoken narrative, the impact of Human connection is the thread that paces throughout. 

“If there is one thing worth doing this Fringe, it is spending an hour in a darkened room with Gill Hicks.” Samela Harris, The Barefoot Review ★★★★★

The smoke from the devastating ‘Black Summer’ bushfires was thick and acrid, it triggered a range of emotions, particularly the memories of the aftermath of the bombing in London, sitting in what was once a tube carriage, waiting for rescue.
