Plagues and passion, beheadings, and babies that fall from trees... The origin of nursery rhymes does not always lie in the entertainment of the young, yet they appease our children, who sleep in blissful ignorance of the torture and politics, witches and murdered religious leaders that lie beneath their bedtime tales. It really is quite contrary. So join us man and woman, goose and gander, Jack and Jill for a night of childhood memories and adult interpretations. Using live strings, classical percussion and dramatic vocals and storytelling songs, Death & Treason, Rhyme & Reason explores the dark and debauched secrets of our most familiar childhood rhymes.
