"One of the
delights of the Festival is to stumble across
a real discovery like this gem.
An
enterprising small-ish London theatre should offer this
a transfer, quick sharp."

of what great theatre is' Hairline

company are fast proving themselves
to be top level contenders in the world

This glorious extravaganza
relocates Ovid's Roman mythology to 1940's wartime Britain.
Cupid - an evacuee with a catapult,
Narcissus - a Hollywood Matinee Idol drooling over his screen image
and an Andrews Sisters Chorus finding close harmony amid cosmic chaos...
