Riding Lights Features 'Pipe Dreams' in Support of WaterAid

|PIC1|Renowned theatre company Riding Lights will be touring their latest show, Pipe Dreams, across the UK in support of WaterAid until 2 December.

As one of the UK's major charities, WaterAid is dedicated to the provision of safe domestic water, sanitation and hygiene education to the poorest people in the world. This year, the organisation celebrates its 25th anniversary.

Many of the venues hosting performances of Pipe Dreams are churches concerned with an ongoing commitment to justice, tying the show in to harvest events and fair-trade work.

The tour will equip the communities of each venue to make a practical contribution to the international work of WaterAid.

According to the Riding Lights website, 'Pipe Dreams is the hilarious, globe-trotting whodunnit about what's going on with our water, unmasking a villain rather closer to home than we might like to admit. Pipe Dreams re-connects the water rich with the water poor.'
