Black
Ram Theatre Company
Rosencrantz
and Guildenstern are Dead
by
Tom Stoppard
directed by Ross McGregor
produced by Louis Selwyn
Wednesday
5th May, 7.30pm
Set
in the ruined gothic wreckage of a proscenium theatre, in
a world of constant duality, mirror images and echoes, Stoppard’s
famed existential comedy explores the comic flip side of
Shakespeare’s tragic masterpiece through the eyes
of his most enigmatic duo, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.
Complete
with musicians, acrobats and circus performers, blazing
fire and trailing glitter, we see these vaudeville anti-heroes
as they trip, traipse and fall through the dark world of
Hamlet in search of hope and purpose, leaving greasepaint
and sparkle in each dying footprint.
A
welcome return by Black Ram with a production spanning the
spectrum of theatrical genres and visual techniques, utilising
dance, puppetry, live music, interactive media projections
and beautiful set pieces.

£12.00 (£10.00 concessions) |
