Fevvers and her fantastic supporting cast weave the tallest tale this side of the equator, drawing in the loveable, yet disbelieving, journalist from America and the unsuspecting audience into her dirty East London world of holey panty hoes, magical clocks and discarded circus costumes. She does this with charm, wit and a whole lot of cockney allure…Is she or isn’t she the virginal angel she leads us to believe? Did Fevvers really burst forth in all her feathery glory from an egg as she claims? Well darlings, a woman’s secrets are her own to tell, so we suggest you come and hear them straight from the birds mouth as it were!
With carnivalesque, vulgar, vibrant magical realism expect to be stunned by these larger than life characters toying with their identities and aiding Walser to rebuild his own. The play is dynamic yet dark, filled with action over its three acts. This wonderful script is accented by live music, moments of comic genius and violent undertones.
Performed and produced by final year Performing Arts Students from Bath Spa University the company are excited to show the public what they have been working towards before they disperse and activate their careers in different parts of the country.
Experience the carnival-come-twisted fairytale that is Nights at the Circus.
