Beowulf with shadow illustrations

Friday, 31 January 2020

Time
19:30 - 21:00
Venue
St Anne's Arts And Community Centre, Barnstaple
Price
£10

A dramatic retelling of the greatest poem in early English - a hero tale that conjures the feeling and ethos of the dark ages. Michael's words are close to the original in sound and spirit, with flashes of Old English itself; while key scenes are illustrated by simple but powerful shadow theatre. Wendy's singing enhances these atmospheric shadow pictures; and so we present a fresh and unusual version of a powerful tale told by bards to our ancestors in their mead halls long before it was written down in the ninth century.
Suitable for all ages over 9 years old.
