Charles Court Opera's annual boutique Christmas shows are legendary, and Rumpelstiltskin – an upside down re-telling of the classic Brothers Grimm fairytale – is no exception.
The writing team behind last year’s OFFIE award-winning hit, Beowulf, present another completely reimagined, madcap fairytale with a brand-new script by John Savournin and new music and lyrics by David Eaton.
A 21st century morality tale of names, identities, adventure and hilarity, Rumpelstiltskin is full of cheeky humour, magical music and a cluster of fantastical characters, all wrapped in their trademark off-the-wall wacky and wonderful weirdness. This must-see show is like no other – and is the perfect festive fairytale treat for families, adults, kids and friends alike. Imaginative, irreverent and irresistible!
This ‘must see show‘ (★★★★ London Living Large) is ‘crazy, but in the best way possible‘ (★★★★★ Spy In The Stalls). Expect the unexpected in this upside down re-telling of the classic Brothers Grimm fairytale, which is ‘a cracker of a show for all the family’ (★★★★ Fairy Powered Productions).
Performances marked ‘Adults Only’ are suitable for over 18s, containing adult humour – naughtiness with bells on!
