Simon Yates at Wyvern Theatre

 

Wyvern Theatre

Swindon

Sunday 22 April 2012

 

To coincide with the release of his third book, The Wild Within covers the last ten years of Simon's expeditions to unclimbed peaks in the Cordillera Darwin in Tierra del Fuego, the Wrangell St-Elias ranges on the Alaskan-Yukon border, and Eastern Greenland.

 

Laced with dry humour, he relates his own experience of the rapid commercialisation of mountain wilderness, while grappling with his new-found commitments as a family man.

 

At the same time he must endure his role in the film adaptation of Joe Simpson’s Touching The Void, having to relive the events of that trip to Peru for a Hollywood director.

 

 

Doors: 7.30pm

 

Tickets: £15.00
