I’M AN ARISTOCRAT, GET ME OUT OF HERE!

 

Gonzo Moose

Paris, 1792. Revolution grips the city and the secret police march traitors to their deaths. No one is safe. Everyone is a suspect. Paris needs a hero, someone who can deliver it from this terror and restore freedom and justice. Will such a hero emerge? Yes.
With comedy and thrills galore you’ll gasp, laugh and be amazed at the elaborate sword fights, the heart wrenching love scenes, and the sensational death-defying French accents!

WOYZECK 

 

Scene Productions

Set amidst the backdrop of WW1, Woyzeck is a startling depiction of the lowly soldier plagued by visions of the apocalypse and plunged into homicidal lunacy by the world around him.
Fusing gothic storytelling, puppetry, song and a spine chilling sound track, this brand new adaptation based on the play by Georg Buchner takes the audience into a world that is disturbingly atmospheric, heart breakingly poignant, darkly comic and delightfully interactive.

“Chillingly combines hilarity with horror…this production has a dream-like quality, powerfully evoked by immaculately slick, highly imaginative physical theatre” The Stage on Metamorphosis

Tickets: £10.50 full | £9.50 concessions | £6.00 students & children
