A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings
3rd Jan–10th Mar 2013

Adults

Originally created to celebrate Little Angel's 50th anniversary in 2011, this production is now being revived to tour across the UK in Jan - March 2013. 

About the show...

The world's been sad since Tuesday, the child has a fever and is hotter than a fish on a spit....The dog chases its tail, Mother dreams of a new broom and Father gazes out to sea. The whole village is on the brink.

Then the sky gets frisky, the sea rears up and, in a bolt of lightning, a very old man with enormous wings crashes to earth in a flurry of feathers. Nothing will ever be the same again!

Inspired by Gabriel Garcia Marquez's story this is a startling world of ruined beauty and magic reality  where  everyone  dreams of their five minutes of fame and riches, and the extraordinary takes flight.

A Kneehigh creative team, led by Mike Shepherd, combine forces with the Little Angel's founding family to create this beautiful, brave and always entertaining show.

Suitable for anyone age 6 and over who believes that an old man might fly.

Presented in association with Kneehigh.
