SOMETHING STRANGE
SOMETHING STRANGE

A New Piece of Music Theatre
Midsummer in a village in Somerset, and friends and family gather for the celebration of a baby’s christening. In the mingling and festivities, who would notice the strange happenings beginning? For midsummer is also a time for faeries - not the sweet kid of faerie you would see at the bottom of the garden - but all the dark faeries of folklore through the ages; the spirits of temptation who seduce their chosen mortals into the lake to a watery end; the wailing washer woman, fated the wash the blooded clothes of those about to die; the faeries in need of mortal babies to take back to their land and who leave a grotesque faerie changeling in its place. Seven years have passed since faerieland last paid their tithe to hell and the time has come for the next payment of human souls. ‘Something Strange’ will show you the modern world when mortal meets faerie, and whether good can always conquer.
