Details

A gothic Victorian promenade show through the secret backstage spaces of the Citizens Theatre. Out of the shadows comes a motley crew of sopranos, hoofers, chorines and wig-masters. They tell a haunting, mournful and darkly comic tale of yet another chorus girl burning to death beneath the stage while the show carried on above her head. Can somebody put a stop to these incidents? Will there be a bloodthirsty coup or a red velvet revolution? The management are literally getting away with murder... Sub Rosa has been created especially for the Citizens by David Leddy, who has been described as a ‘theatrical maverick' (Financial Times), ‘one of the most interesting dramatic writers on the Scottish scene' (Scotsman) and ‘the rising star of Scottish theatre' (Observer). The promenade show will take an audience of just 15 people through the secret, backstage areas of the theatre. ickets strictly limited, advanced booking highly recommended.
