More London Free Festival at The Scoop – Free Theatre

Summer time in London wouldn’t be complete without a generous helping of free arts entertainment at ‘the king of alfresco venues’, The Scoop at More London. Presenting an impressive programme of free fringe, music and award-winning theatre and film the More London Free Festival takes place at The Scoop at More London; a sunken, 1000-seater, riverside amphitheatre on the South Bank with stunning views of the Tower of London and Tower Bridge.

To celebrate a decade of creating award-winning free theatre at The Scoop at More London, Steam Industry Free Theatre present a rare staging of the magnificent Oresteia trilogy – a three part epic drama charting Ancient Greece's journey from chaos and war to peace, justice and the harmony that inspired the Olympic ideal.

The Trojan Horse

For our early evening family audiences, a lively retelling of how a bunch of plucky lads from Greece outsmart the might of the Trojan army with an unusual present… But will the right boy get the girl? Expect our trademark blend of toe-tapping songs, ingenious puppets, comedy and adventure.

Agamemnon
Thursday - Sunday, 8pm - 9pm
As twilight falls, the gruesome and dramatic story of a hero's homecoming steeped in murder and revenge gradually unfolds. A great king is reunited with his queen but bitter memories bubble to the surface and recriminations are bloody and unexpected.

Orestes
Thursday - Sunday, 9:30pm - 10:30pm
Darkness sees a new generation of royal turmoil as terrifying forces seek to plunge the great house deeper into destruction; but help is at hand as a new spirit of hope and justice brings our epic story to a thundering and uplifting climax.
