Think for a minute about what it would be like to have no light, only total darkness.
What a candle would mean to you…
BEOWULF:
We expect this work to challenge... it is unlike any other We Players' production to date. We invite you to journey into strange new territory and to release expectation of the usual.
"The performers labour and labour for the audience; every welling of laughter and emotion in me felt wrought from determined and sacrificing humans." - Colin S
It is a fever-dream of memory and forgetting, a ritual that will both include your participation and leave you suspended in the shadows...
"Charlie Gurke, Jon Raskin, Larry Ochs, Bruce Ackley, and Steve Adams clothed in their own versions of early Middle Ages furs, hides, and rough robes become an integral part of the storytelling, offering a musical score like none any of us has likely ever heard nor will long forget." -Theatre Eddys
BEOWULF has only 2 weekends remaining.
Join us before it’s too late!
The journey begins at sunset
at the SF Maritime Museum.
Only through April 16.
Wrestle with humanity and monstrosity under the stunning expanse of the sky and in the warm embrace of our mead hall.
