From press release:

The Road to Santiago is a new 60-minute solo show by Rory Ledbetter having its World Premier at the Toronto Fringe Festival. Ledbetter and his fiancé decide to undergo “premarital counseling” through an 800 kilometer walk across Spain on El Camino de Santiago! Armed with a guidebook, shoes, backpacks, and a lot of issues concerning their relationship, they meet a cast of characters, survive an army of blisters and physical injuries, and find peace in their relationship. Santiago is a high energy solo show that is hilarious and full of heart.
