SUMMARY:Perseus & Andromeda at St Leonard at the Hythe
DESCRIPTION:Quill & Inkling Theatre Company presents a dynamic new adaptation of the classic tale Perseus & Andromeda. \nAbout the show \nBeing a teenager is a difficult time in your life. Take Perseus for example. An impoverished\, but ambitious young lad\, from a single parent home\, has to try and make his way in the world while dealing with the delusions of his mother. She insists that they are royalty\, and his father was a God! How is he supposed to live up to that?Andromeda would love to be left alone\, but being actual royalty\, she has duties\, like marriage\, and a mother who is insufferably vain. Embarrassing enough\, but when she starts including her daughter in her vain boasts life is about to get a lot more dramatic for the young girl.Then there are the Gods. They are starting to take an interest in all of these goings on. That rarely makes things easier\, they do have a way of making things more difficult… \nAbout Quill & Inkling \nQuill & Inkling Theatre Company has been weaving tales of adventure\, mystery\, and myth for over a decade. Our productions blend dynamic storytelling with innovative use of puppetry and physical theatre. From intimate spaces to grand stages\, our work connects with audiences of all ages.
