Isobel Rogers' ELSA Comes to VAULT Festival 2018
by Stephi Wild
- Jan 10, 2018
With song and satire, a waitress delves beneath the stereotypes of her flat-white drinking customers to serve up a straight-talking look at expectations of millennial women. Through character comedy, satirical songs and off-the-cuff stand-up covering the contradictions of slut-shaming to Instagram-envy, Isobel Rogers explores cultural stereotypes and what lies underneath. Isobel Rogers' debut show is directed by Sara Joyce, who directed Milly Thomas' The Stage Award-winning Dust at Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2017 and was recently announced as one of the Old Vic 12 directors for 2017/18.

Cygnet Theatre Presents San Diego Premiere of SHOCKHEADED PETER
by A.A. Cristi
- Apr 7, 2017
Cygnet's fourteenth season ends with the manic, irreverent and wildly imaginative presentation of the theatrical event, Shockheaded Peter. This 1998 musical took a famed German children's book series and turned it into an instant classic. The stage production of Shockheaded Peter won rave reviews around the world as one of the most original collaborations of its kind. It featured music by The Tiger Lillies, a three-piece band with a cult following in London, and includes graphic and hilariously sadistic lessons for children about what will happen to them if they don't do as they are told. These cautionary tales for children become lessons for adults in the completely demented stage production.
