In a night of dark and magical transformations, allow yourself to be lured into the evocative world of grown-up fairytale, filled with power struggles, alchemy, stolen children, bizarre marriages and unflinching metaphor.
The White Bear King, by Sally Pomme Clayton
A princess marries a bear, who comes to her bed each night as a man.
Step into a snow swathed fairytale forest for a dark Norwegian wondertale – a quest through ice, to climb a mountain of glass and set a cursed bear free. Mysterious, romantic and funny, Sally Pomme Clayton, serves up the perfect wintery romance located within a fantastical star-lit universe and filled with stolen children, trolls, and trickery, and richly metaphorical transformation. Sometimes you suffer for love – sometimes you suffer because of love…
The Blacksmith at the Bridge of Bones, by Ben Haggarty
If knowledge equals power, then what is the responsibility of such power?
World renowned for his dynamic and challenging performances, Ben Haggarty tells his stories with infectious charm and ease. This dark and full-blooded story of power, knowledge and alchemy, explores that enduring relationship between a teacher and an apprentice. Evocative, unflinching and beautiful by turn, this is a performance to lure you into a world where rules aren't broken lightly.
