Shockheaded Peter is a delightfully macabre adaptation of 19th century German children’s book Der Struwwelpeter–but it’s most decidedly not just for children!
The book recounts several varieties of misbehaving children and their dreadful ends, and this punk opera adaptation, which opened on the West End in London in 1998 and ran for several world tours, cranks up both the comedy and Grand Guignol to 11.
In Artistic Director Amanda Berg Wilson’s multi-generational, immersive staging, The Catamounts will examine how terrifying parenting can be, especially when we try and let children be their strange, independent selves.
