A Feast of Bones

A gentleman dines at a fine French restaurant – but at Le Monde Bouleversé you never get quite what you expect. Underneath their human exteriors, beastly greeds and needs are crouching, awaiting their chance to pounce - and in times of war and social chaos, how easily they become unleashed. At Le Monde Bouleversé revenge is a dish best served cold.

A Feast of Bones is a musical fable from Theatre Lovett featuring live music and an original score. The company takes their inspiration from the story of Henny Penny, paralleling this story of five birds who joyously march towards an unforeseen doom with the jingoistic march of Europe towards a ‘glorious’ war in 1914.

A Feast Of Bones premiered at Dublin Theatre Festival, was the opening show at Imaginate International Children's Festival 2018 at The Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh and was one of the curated shows for On the Edge, Birmingham; a showcase of cutting edge work that pushes boundaries in TYA.
