Details
A vast block of Carrara marble known as Il Gigante becomes the centre of conflict between two great artists, as Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo compete for a prestigious commission to carve a statue of David. The result is one of the most iconic works of the Renaissance - but who was the model? Powerful, witty and moving, Anthony Sher's play explores the dark interplay between sexuality and creativity. This production contains nudity.
