"I can't recommend this enough"

BY
MERVYN PEAKE
A COLOURFUL TALE OF PIRACY LOVE AND TRANSFORMATION
Inspired by the brilliant imagery in Mervyn Peake's illustrations the company have created an exciting piece of theatre using large shadow and rod puppets, mime, story telling, live actors and original music by
Adrian Wagner.

This is a unique and innovative piece of work which was highly acclaimed at its World Premier in Shanghai ! where the company performed in Mandarin.
CAPTAIN SLAUGHTERBOARD terrorises the ramshackle and eccentric crew of his ship The Black Tiger "in adventures all over the bright blue oceans that stretch forever in all directions " . One day they see an island in the distance inhabited by extraordinary creatures .............



Kevin Thomas , Director of the Welsh Academy and Cardiff Literature Festival said about this show

"Never have I experienced such a sense of wonder in 8 years of programming events for our festival . The haunting music, the inimitable details of Peakes story itself and the graceful way it has been treated add up to a truly wonderful experience . I can't recommend this enough"
