Les Amoureux (The Lovers)

In her only garment, a faded, tattered once-wedding dress with sunglasses to shield her from light, the Countess, neither alive nor dead, is a reluctant huntress. Condemned forever to slake a thirst that will not let her rest. She turns over a tarot card. For the first time ever, she has drawn Les Amoureux. Her keeper and the shadows of her domain, bear witness to the arrival of the handsome young soldier. Combining dance and physical theatre with opera, voice and design, this is a sensual tale of purity and damage. This new production for five performers is based around Angela Carter's story The Lady of The House of Love. Trav 1
