| Description |
'Words, My Dear, can mean anything I want them to' The Keepers is a sexy, quirky theatre work which breaks from the ordinary and travels to a rich and sumptuous world of absurd physical theatre with a strong emphasis on brave dynamic storytelling and musical characterisation. The Keepers is a story about why people stay, and why people leave. Inspired by the lives and writings of French literary figures Marguerite Duras and Anais Nin, The Keepers tells the story of two women inhabiting an isolated lighthouse on a small rocky island in the middle of an ocean. One arrived by rowboat, unannounced and unexplained - the other seems to have been here forever. What brought them to this place and what makes them stay?. |
