Centenarian clown Scaramouche's odyssey through crumbling empires, comic misadventures, the 20th century's darkest episodes, the loves, brutalities, ecstasies and tragedies beneath his seven white masks. A poetic, profoundly moving voyage unfolds, an enchanting virtuoso performance with haunting, evocative designs conjuring a world of indelible images, a glorious tale sumptuously told. Writer-performer, Justin Butcher, is directed by Olivier winner, Guy Masterson (The Shark Is Broken) 25th anniversary season. ‘A masterpiece of solo magic realism' (BritishTheatreGuide.info). Offie winner Best Actor Award, 2022. 'Mesmerising' (Guardian). 'Fascinating, poignant, funny... Storytelling at its best' (Times). ‘Unique, stunning... a new kind of theatre' (Metro).
