26 - Wise Children

Emma Rice brings her unique, musical & exuberant vision to Angela Carter’s novel. A big, bawdy tangle of theatrical joy and pain, Wise Children is a celebration of show business, family, forgiveness and hope. The staged production follows twin showgirls, charting the glorious glamour and the darkness and pain, of a life lived in the limelight. Expect show girls and Shakespeare, sex and scandal, mischief and mistaken identity – and butterflies galore.
