The Crick Crack Club presents THE HAIRY GIRL by Kersti Stbi (N.B if you'd like tickets for both shows on this day visit https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/crickcrackclubstorytelling/t-ojkpxzp) Once upon a time there was a king and a queen who had everything, except for a child... This is the very ordinary beginning to one of the wildest of Scandinavian fairytales. Tatterhood - the wild twin, the unintended progeny, the loose cannon, the protector. Tatterhood, the Hairy Girl, thunders into the world on her goat, armed with a wooden spoon, beating up troll hags, saving her sister from a grim destiny, and using all her cunning to carve out a future for them both. Kersti Stbi remixes this primal tale of wonder with the sheer force of Japanese Taiko drumming. The result is power and beauty in equal measure. N.B: The performance involves Taiko drumming those sensitive to load noise levels are advised not to attend. Content: This performance contains descriptions of childlessness, childbirth, beheading, and violence, contextualised within a paradigm of mythic narrative, archetype and metaphor. Director Abbi Patrix Taiko Consultant John Bolwell INFORMATION Running time: 60mins no interval WRAP UP WARM! There will be NO FIRE at this event, due to the set up of the production.
