As a first post we thought we would plug our 2009 autumn tour of 'Revenger's Tragedy'
A new adaptation, of the greatest Jacobean 'Horror Tragedy' of all, specially adapted for the company by James Tudor

Ironic, Iconic & sexy, brimming with the darkest humour, Revenger's Tragedy drags an audience- screaming -into a decaying, debauched society (not too far removed from our own) where morals hold no value- Ideals have no worth!
Vindice wants revenge; revenge against the tyrant Duke who destroyed his world. In disguise he sets out on his crusade and enters the world of The Court. Moving amongst the Duke and his truly dysfunctional family, he encounters more than he bargains for, and discovers that even his nearest and dearest are not above temptation. Looking around him, at a world rotten at its very core, he decides “Why stop at the death of a viper when you may also destroy its wicked brooding nest!”

The Production is touring to- The Lichfield Garrick, Evesham Arts Centre, Bromsgrove's Artrix, Wolverhampton's Arena Theatre, Birmingham's Old Rep, and two special support performances at Hall Green Little Theatre.
