A lad heads off to kill a monster. To prove himself. To make history.
A boy falls out of the sky. His dad built wings. To escape.
Two stories, two gigs - two inextricably linked stories of hope and loss, wildly reimagined by internationally acclaimed ‘masters of storytelling’ (FourthWall). Told one after the other, this epic theatrical double album, full of virtuosic spoken word and soaring live music, will be performed live for the very first time.
Experience the classic Greek myths of ‘Theseus & the Minotaur’ and ‘Daedalus & Icarus’, reimagined for a modern world.
This will be a seated performance.
