Crick Crack Club presents Fairytales for Grownups: A Dance with the Minotaur’s Sister
Performance storytelling by Steph Brittain.
A King breaks a promise.
A Queen takes passion in hand.
A Prince becomes a feared prisoner.
And Ariadne dances.
Storyteller, Steph Brittain unravels a web of love, loss, betrayal, and bees – tracing the footsteps of Ariadne to a place before the maze and before the thread.
From a forest dance floor to the labyrinth’s dark passages, and beneath the starry skies of Naxos, A Dance with the Minotaur’s Sister weaves an intricate tapestry of strength, courage, and desire – a story as old as myth, told with the living pulse of now.
Tipping ancient Greek mythology into a new perspective, this is a story of a bull, a boy, his sister, a labyrinth and what happens when the hero leaves.
Ariadne is waiting – pulsing with joy and fire. Join the dance.
Running time: Approx 70 minutes without interval
