Box Tale Soup's MANALIVE Set for Brighton Fringe
Following hugely successful performances of their last three shows at Brighton Fringe, award winning company Box Tale Soup return in May with their latest work, Manalive! The new show tells the story of Beacon House, a broken-down boarding establishment, and its brooding tenants. When an exciting new guest arrives everyone is uplifted by his infectious charm and energy... but the visitor may not be as innocent as he seems. Adapted from the novel by G.K. Chesterton, Manalive! features just two performers alongside a cast of Box Tale Soup's signature handmade puppets. The show is also part of WINDOW, the arts industry showcase for high quality new work - the second consecutive year that Box Tale Soup have been included in this programme.
Manalive! is an original adaptation written by the company and commissioned by the Everyman Theatre, Cheltenham. It features a soundtrack created and recorded especially for the show and Box Tale Soup's unusual blend of handmade props, puppetry and innovative theatre. Performers Noel and Antonia have appeared in shows such as Doctor Who, HBO's Game of Thrones, BBC's The Hour and CBBC's Mission 2110, and are now very excited to present their new production at Brighton Fringe.
