When the Morning Stars Sang & the Angels Shouted for Joy. Hugh Lupton
December 4 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm

Demons, archangels & djinns; hoopoes, swallows, fish, donkeys and maggots; kings, queens, merchants, fools and the voice from the heart of the whirlwind all contend in this rich interweaving of Apocryphal and Old Testament mystery tales drawing from Jewish, Islamic and Christian sources.
Audiences will encounter Adam and Eve, Solomon and Sheba, Tobias and the Angel, Job and his Comforters… stories that underpin our culture… told in the picture language of the heart, with vigour and humour, with rich language and deep magic.
This is a chance to shake off old habitual pieties and hear these ancient tales with fresh ears.
This is a gripping, accessible and moving performance aimed at adult audiences
not suitable for under 14s.
