Unsent Letters - A Writing Workshop for Women The story behind When Mountains Meet has been created and inspired by the letters and journals of Scottish musician Anne Wood, who travelled from Scotland to Pakistan in her mid-twenties to find her father and travel with him in his country.

Offering a further opportunity to explore the themes of the show, we are inviting other women to think about their own stories and relationships in a special workshop with storyteller Mashal Peerzada, a passionate champion of authentic women’s narratives, who is joining us all the way from Lahore to lead the Unsent Letters creative writing workshop for female-identifying people. Mashal is the founder of Yellow Brick Creative Development in Pakistan.

The Unsent Letters experience is a joyful and safe space for sharing, learning and unexpected conversations, bringing together the nostalgia of letter writing, journaling and dramatic reading.

When Mountains Meet is brought to Ullapool by Authentic Artist Collective and KT Producing as part of the Ulluminate festival. Performances on Friday afternoon and Saturday evening).

Feedback from past participants:

“Unsent Letters was truly a magical experience. I was amazed by how Mashal Peerzada and her partners enabled a group of people, most of whom had never met before, to express real thoughts and just for a moment pause everything in their lives to attend to their own feelings. By the end of the session, I felt empowered knowing I had another tool to reach out to myself.”
