Our show, with its cast of 60, focuses on the Struwwelpeter series of poems, which warn children just how dangerous the consequences of misbehaving can be! You can expect to be thrilled, amazed and even a little horrified as the cast perform these moral poems and demonstrate other talents and skills that will excite and engage the entire audience. We are going to take you right inside the heart of the circus with each member of the cast and chorus warming up for their circus act!

The audience will see a whole host of characters including; Cruel Fredrick, Conrad “Suck-a-Thumb”, Pyromaniac Harriet, Figity Philip and Fartin’ Martin who all through their actions meet a gruesome end!

In Shockheaded Peter we have incorporated German Folk music and written our own stories to really bring this show fizzing to life. With the audience in four banks, and a cross shaped stage the audience will view these children’s plights from different angles, each seeing and believing a different version of events. This theatre style is hardly ever used so is perfect for drama students studying different types of theatre and or anyone who wants a brand new experience.
