Synopsis: | Performance Theatre Company take the Arthurian legends and project them into a post-apocalyptic future that sees 'Mad Max' collided with 'Stomp'. Whereas their 'Odyssey' was a wilful compression of both 'The iliad' and 'The Odyssey', here ithey top and tail the source material, ignoring the myriad knightly yarns of the Round Table for the framing stories of Arthur himself. By concentrating on the creation of Camelot at the promptings of grumpy. seer Merlin (Simon McLinden), and its dissolution at the hands of Mordred and the faithless Guinevere, they end up with something more reminiscent of 'Macbeth' than the courtly romance we would otherwise expect. | |||||
