A Brief History of Evil
5 October, 2016 @ 7:30 pm
£10
Hilarious and mesmerising, terrifying and absurd, A Brief History of Evil is a duet about lies and where they can lead us.
Who hasn’t embroidered the truth, or pretended to be someone they’re not? But when all the lies are stripped away, who is left? When we look in the mirror, who looks back? Which version is really us?
In A Brief History of Evil, two men take us on a hallucinogenic white-knuckle ride to find out what happens when we listen to the voices inside us, or don’t.
Created and performed by Ewan Downie and Jonathan Peck, with the assistance of Al Seed, A Brief History of Evil combines Company of Wolves’ electrifying movement style with the vulnerability, mockery and satire of clown and buffon to carve out a unique blend of humour and rigour.
The result is a performance that is electric, dangerous, relentless and very, very funny.
“Sinister yet playful… sympathetic and witty despite the undertow of horror.”
