Drunken Chorus
01-18-2011, 11:47 AM
Anybody interested in live performance and horror should check out this show (details below), touring the UK this year. Check out the trailer and let me know what you think...
TRAILER: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJeqoCAgdi0
AND HELL FOLLOWED WITH THEM is a haunting piece of theatre, exploring the tension and suspense of the horror genre.
‘She sees the end of the world - all fire and smoke and blood rain. You know, like they say... the wailing and the gnashing of teeth.‘
(INLAND EMPIRE)
Merging nightmarish visions with grotesque movement and gallows humour, Drunken Chorus descend into a dark and disturbing world of fear and violence. It is a performance that explores our perceptions of horror; a performance full of darkness and silence; a performance that lies always in the shadow of some horrific act.
