To celebrate their 21st year at the forefront of touring theatre Red Shift turns its hand to the mass of fable and legend that is King Arthur; a world of passionate love affairs, treachery and revenge, a world torn apart by the contradictions bewteen power and responsibility.
Do not expect a cosy rendition of a tale made familiar through repetition. Arthur's Utopian Camelot is set in a sleek new world, where battle scenes will be enacted through the martial art form Capoeira, against a thunderous mix of cutting-edge beats and traditional Brazilian rhythms. Embracing the legend's spirituality and violence, exploring themes of sin redemption and betrayal, Red Shift will prove this is a story worth telling again and again...
