Keats, Love and Myth Understandings – John Hegley @ Jacksons Lane
Oct 30 @ 8:00 pm – 9:00 pm

A selection of verses on the above topics, devised as an adult show, but tolerable to some 10 year olds. Verses concerning Keats’s relationships with vegetables and surgery. A long look at love, both on, and off the buses and musings on the old chestnut of Orpheus’s disruptive turn around. Deep and daft. Come and Sing.

Myths remixed: the classic story of Persephone is retold with live music, aerial acrobatics, fire, dance and mime.

Chivaree Circus will take you on a journey and leave you ready to embrace an eternity in Hades.
