| Description |
The ever-inventive, multi-talented performers of Tony Award-nominated Kneehigh are renowned as creators of wildly energetic and hugely popular shows. Following Tristan & Yseult (2006) and The Wild Bride (2012), they return to the Festival with a reworking of John Gay's bawdy 18th-century musical satire The Beggar's Opera, updated with a new score that mixes Renaissance polyphony, folk, heavy metal, ska, grime and dubstep. Who wouldn't want to hear how that works? |
