Ben Haggarty, Sianed Jones, The Crick Crack Club

Performance Storytelling - Ben Haggarty
Music (voice, harmonium, bass, electric violin) - Sianed Jones

10th Century science fiction, meets Irish epic, meets horror strip, meets passion play...

Epic storyteller, Ben Haggarty, and wild musician Sianed Jones, tell the extraordinary story of two deities whose cursed pursuit of love spans a thousand years - surviving complex love triangles; impossible quests; multiple monstrous reincarnations, and the partitioning of the world into the land of the mortals and a dark Otherworld.

This intensely physical performance, with its brooding soundscapes and song, casts a spell of archaic magic - balancing the surreal, the joyous and the comedic with an atmosphere of epic power.

This unbridled fantasy is based on a startling work of 10th Century Irish literature salvaged from a Cheltenham convent, and when you hear it, you'll wonder just what the nuns were doing with it...
