About this show
Imogen would rather stay home and knit, but her mother, famed mountaineer Clarantine Hilbig, pushes her to conquer the treacherous Flugelhorn in the Austrian Alps. Facing a disgraced guide, a boastful rival and an overly enthusiastic ghost, Imogen must navigate more than the mountain’s dangers. As she climbs, she confronts the weight of her mother’s expectations and her own identity. Imogen Up the Mountain is a Victorian-era absurdist comedy with a modern twist about family pressure and finding your own path – even while hanging off a cliff.
