Kick-off 2020 with a malignant mosaic of morbid mysteries, once told, now whispered... From the company behind Golem and The Animals and Children Took To The Streets, this brand new show is a collection of rarely told folktales, offering a glimpse into imaginations from a pre-industrialized age. Tyrannical ogres, magical birds and very, very fat cats are all brought to life with the companys signature style, set to a live score involving Peruvian prayer boxes, donkey jaws, violins and musical saws. This isnt just theatre - this is a world of its own, a fusion of intricately handcrafted animation, live music, the visual aesthetic of early cinema and a fondness for the fantastic, the dark, the weird and the wonderful.This is no lullaby. There is no happy ending. Some things dont tie up into neat bows. Some roots are hopelessly knotted, too tangled to ever be unpicked...
Ages: 12+ (recommended), under 16s accompanied
