It's 1899 and all of Europe is agape at the arrival of the new
century! The world crackles with possibilities - and its people
dance to the irresistible rhythms of money, sex, love and freedom.
Swinging above them all is a showbiz sensation; a fierce, vulgar,
pant-droppingly sexy trapeze artist called Fevvers. The story
charts her unlikely love affair with Walser, a world-weary
journalist on a mission to expose her as a fake. "Nights at the
Circus" opens at the Lyric Hammersmith in January 2006. Emma Rice,
acclaimed Artistic Director of Kneehigh Theatre ("Tristan &
Yseult", "The Bacchae") directs Angela Carter's great mythic novel.
With rising star Natalia Tena as Fevvers ("About a Boy", "Mrs
Henderson Presents" and "Shared Experience's Bronte" & "Gone to
Earth") and Gisli Orn Gardarsson as Walser ("Young Vic's Romeo
& Juliet and Woyzeck").
