The Beacons

Igor Emmerich, documentary photographer.

Here are some shots from The Gathering - the final performance which took place on Sunny Sands Beach. Hundreds of us gathered to celebrate the re-uniting of The Sea Gooseberries as we set them free into the ocean.

Beacons is created by Folkestone-based theatre maker and scenographer Alison Neighbour with composer @empeasgood, and creative technologist and game designer Tarim. Over the past nine months, Alison has been working with Sea Gooseberry Guardians from across Folkestone, Hythe & Romney Marsh to secure safe passage for the Sea Gooseberries.
