What to expect:

Track occurs along a section of the Newfoundland T’Railway from Leggos Ave to Barry Place Community Garden in Curling. The show can be experienced at your own pace anytime between 11-1 on Saturday Sept 28, and 3-5 Sunday Sept 29. For the best experience of the show, we recommend joining a group leaving at a designated start time: 11, 11:30, 12 on Saturday; or 3, 3:30, 4 on Sunday.

Bring comfortable shoes and dress for the weather

The performance and walk lasts about 50 minutes, then audiences are treated to a boil-up where you can mingle and maybe even share your own stories of the T’Railway. A shuttle can bring audiences back to your cars, or you can see the show in reverse by walking back to the start!

Getting to Track:

Track takes place on the Newfoundland T’Railway in Curling.

Audiences will start at the Leggos Ave trailhead (see map) and end at the Barry Place Community Garden. Audiences can walk, bike, or drive to Leggos Ave and after the show a courtesy shuttle is available to bring you back to the starting point.

Accessibility information:

The Newfoundland T’Railway is a well-maintained public access commonly used by pedestrians and cyclists. While we have striven to consider access needs from the outset, due to the site-specific nature of Track, audiences with accessibility concerns are encouraged to reach out to candicepikeinmotion@gmail.com with specific questions or familiarize themselves with the performance route in advance.

The performance route is approximately 1.1km on mostly flat, compact gravel with a top layer of fine loose gravel. In some places there are small but deep ruts caused by water runoff. About half of the route has a wooden railing that audience members can lean on, and half does not. There are some large rocks that some audiences may wish to sit on about 250m into the route, and again about 600m and 800m. Additionally there are two benches about 700m along the route that audiences could sit on if necessary. Track lasts about 50 minutes.

At the end of the performance route is a community garden. Some tables and chairs will be available for audiences and audiences will be offered light refreshments (allergy and nutritional information available upon request).

Audiences are advised that there are no public washrooms along the Newfoundland T’Railway. Due to the public nature of the space we cannot guarantee a scent-free, or sensory-friendly environment.
