We’re very sorry to announce that this performance has been cancelled.
One of the company’s performers was involved in a bus accident yesterday. Thankfully, they are expected to make a full recovery, but doctors have advised a period of rest during which they cannot perform.
We know many in our community were looking forward to this event and we sincerely apologise for the disappointment.
We hope to work with the company to reschedule the performance in a future season and will update this page with any news.
We’d like to give a heartfelt thank you to the Swimbridge community, our promoters, the hosts who offered accommodation, and everyone who helped make this event possible - your generosity and support mean so much to us.
Gather around the fire and let us remind you of what it was to be afraid of the dark. Don’t build the fire too high, sing too loud or laugh too heartily because he’s out there and he’s hungry.
The award-winning circus company Nikki & JD in collaboration with Lost Dog create an outdoor show that combines circus, dance, theatre and live music to re-enact the original horror story. The one about the monster, and the monster’s mother, and the dragon and the hero and the severed limbs.
Dark, comic and physically dangerous this is a modern re-telling of that ancient epic, Beowulf.
