About
A play about adventure, betrayal, and man's impulse to conquer the world.
Dan and Will climb mountains. Aged eighteen, they climbed Everest. They became legends.
Rachel isn't interested in being a character in Dan's story. She intends to make her own. But with the thrill of a climb just days away, it's not just principles, but people, in danger.
Elinor Cook's play “Pilgrims” premiered at HighTide Festival 2016, in a co-production with HighTide, Theatr Clwyd and Vicky Graham Productions, directed by Tamara Harvey.

Reviews
"'A gorgeous piece... layered and lyrical... Cook's characters are beautifully drawn... Pilgrims isn't just a protest about the way women get sidelined in stories - that men get to be heroes, and women, their prizes - it dares to suggest there's a reason for that'"
WhatsOnStage
"'A honeycomb of delicately interlinked scenes that layer back and forth in time'"
Evening Standard
"'A theatrically exciting and free-flowing piece of narrative... an impressively detailed and suggestive example of contemporary new writing'"
