Performances of Rumi’s work by Ashley Ramsden and Duncan Mackintosh are not to be missed. Accomplished actors and storytellers, Ashley and Duncan capture the spirit of the great man, blending his humour, eroticism, compassion, mystic teaching and visionary insight into a feast for mind, body and soul.

Often working with local musicians to create vivid, semi-staged shows, they bring Rumi’s words and spirit alive in a way that many people have found deeply moving, even transforming.

Their unique performances leave audiences in no doubt why Rumi’s inspired words are so widely read in the West, 800 years after his birth.
