Pulse

Blending viola, voice, movement, animation and storytelling, Pulse weaves together Campbell’s own coming-of-age story, where profound encounters with music and love change the course of her life. It tells the true story of how she finally found her musical ‘pulse’. After frustrating and funny detours to music college and Mexican orchestras, Campbell makes a visit to Cape Breton which sends her home with a spring in her step.   

Co-devised and directed by Kath Burlinson, with original music by Mairi Campbell and sound designer Dave Gray.

Pulse is a multi-artform production. Text content is around 50% which can be translated to other languages through subtitles as required and it has been successfully presented to non-English speaking audiences.

Pulse can be presented with a 40 minute solo song set performed as a first half.
