The Lion's Face
T01407742062
Compassionate, heartfelt, strikingly dramatic and often witty,
The Lion's Face is a musical tale of love, loss and family. The story begins with a man forgetting his own birthday: a trivial thing, but one which signals an irreversible return to childhood. Told through theatre and music, this is not only a highly original and richly-textured take on ageing, but a look at the incomprehension of getting old in the minds of the young.
