Details

My Lady Isabella Rannochmore (stunt double to Mary Queen of Scots) and 'would-be-gentlemen' Variable Simnel (finest pastry cook in all the land) are waiting... in Purgatory. What is Purgatory? Does it even exist, and what do you do when you are stuck there? Delight in the gruesome and gorgeous goings on in Elizabethan life, feast on feats of heroism, laugh your heads off to the perils of invention and weep at the tragedy of execution gone wrong. Ruff Luck is a newly written piece, featuring wild foolery, puppetry and some rather crazy properties and invention(s). Stiltskin bring together fooling, physical theatre, circus skills, giant puppets and spectacular costumes, to weave tales of fantasy, characters with curiosity, creating a little mischief along the way. Welcoming young people with a good stomach. Not suitable for under 12s. 1 hour - no interval
