Description:

Gather round for the grim and glorious world of Hans Christian Anderson in this acrobatic re-telling of his twisted tale. Two characters find themselves at the edge of a mysterious forest; an unknown place that represents their inner temptations. This forbidden land can yield rewards for the intrepid trespasser, but beware, it’s a place where they’ll also be tested; lost and found. A rich reimagining of the dark and disturbing fairytale in a forest of chinese poles.

Co-commissioned by Without Walls and Watch This Space Festival, National Theatre.
