And the Snake Sheds Its Skin
Synopsis:
Tells the story from the beginning of civilisation, with larger than life characters and extraordinary events. It is a contemporary tribal piece told in poetic words with Rhythms and harmonies of West Africa. Part Drama literature, part opera, part pop, part image-led theatre, this exciting fusion of forms reinvents these ancient creation myths for a modern audiences.
