Episode 10 - Back to the Land: The David Hunch Story, Part 217 May 202200:33:36
No advance fanfare. No publicity. Just David Hunch and Simon Feathers traveling around Britain in a little wooden wagon pulled by the faithful shire horses Jiminy and Rhubarb, and a stripped-down cast of characters including Tumbler himself, Postmistress Millie, Hoffman the angry German barkeep, and a brand-new character, the Magic Wizard. Through these intimate, spiritual shows, performed to crowds of one or two hundred villagers in fields and meadows, David Hunch sought a deeper communion with his audience than TV could ever provide. And yet, within the space of just a few years it was all to go horribly, spectacularly wrong. Follow us on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, and of course at Tumblerswilly.com
