Frogs
Aristophanes' Greek comedy tackles art, politics and ego-mania, asking the big question: how much do we really value the theatre?
Hecate's thoroughly modern Frogs follows the god of drama, Dionysus, down into the Underworld to find the greatest writer who ever lived. Whereas the original text features Greek playwrights, Charles Scherer's script includes a literary smack-down between William Shakespeare and Jane Austen, while Sara Garrard provides a quirky percussive soundtrack.
This zany comedy is full of slapstick humour and sharp wits, all in a murky, post-apocalyptic set, where the grotesque 'frogs' are the storytellers, an ensemble cast of five females.
