After dark – a savage and captivating adaption, reimagined for ages 16+

Delving into the psyche of a desperate Queen enslaved by her own harsh reflection, a tragic story unfolds brimming with cruelty, envy, and acts of heroism.

This is a woman’s dread of aging, and her battle against invisibility through enacting monstrous fantasies.

Directed by Liv Lorent and retold by Carol Ann Duffy, this visually stunning dance-theatre production turns the classic tale we know on its head. Join us and take a bite of the poisoned apple.

Header image description: One woman in an embellished floor length gown sits on a bench. Another woman in a satin slip is laid dramatically across her lap with her arms thrown back and a bitten red apple in one of her hands. Red threads which look like wool are being pulled from her torso as if she is being disembowelled. The sitting woman pulls at the threads with her raised arm and looks down her nose at the woman in her lap. Behind them is a wall bathed in red light and spattered with blood.
