Walking Heads Storyteller

We take you exploring off the beaten track

Walking Heads make audio tours with a difference.

We take you off the beaten track to explore forgotten or undiscovered places. We seek out hidden stories and bring them to life.

Walking Heads are a collaborative bunch – we are writers, musicians, producers and geeky sorts of different kinds – all of us slightly nuts about exploring, researching, creating and producing the kind of walking tours we like to take ourselves (looking for the true character of the place). We make and deliver our adventures as mobile applications that you can download at the touch of a button, so our audio tours are available across a range of devices including smart phones and MP3 players.

Come with us. We look forward to hearing what you think and adding what you know to our experience.

Overview

An audio adventure through one hundred years of cinema history.

From the first picture shows in the 1890s to the present day, Glasgow has been a special place for movies. In fact in the 1930s Glasgow had more cinemas per head of population than any other city in the world.

In this audio tour cinema historian Gordon Barr reveals hidden stories of cinemas past, and at each stop you will be asked to answer a question, or meet a challenge before moving on. Take as long as you like – or compete with friends to reach the last stop before they do.

Enjoy the game and please let us know how you get on. In return we will let you know when we are holding one of our friendly live quiz events – with prizes for the most correct answers, and imaginative film props. Find out more at walkingheads.net/cinemacity.
