Mountaineer
Simon Yates brings his extraordinary stories to Darlington Civic Theatre on
Wednesday 3 June.
On
a remote mountain in Peru in June 1985 mountaineer
Simon Yates found himself in an unenviable position. He was slowly being
dragged off the mountain face by his injured partner – Joe Simpson – dangling
on the rope far below. His decision to cut the rope saved both their lives in
the epic trial of survival that followed. With the publication of the book
‘Touching The Void’ and the film of the same name, both climbers became
household names.
Come
along and witness Simon’s tireless journey from that mountain in Peru to some of the remotest
on the planet and share with him the drama, excitement and beauty of modern
mountaineering.
Told
with wit, dry humour and lavishly illustrated with images and video collected
on his great climbs, Simon both entertains and inspires.
