Love Rites, by Ben Haggarty & Steph Brittain at The Cube
Tickets £12

A event held at The Cube on Thursday 13th June. The event starts at 20:00.


A man buries his heart...
A woman becomes a wild creature of the trees...
A corpse hangs by its hair...
The God of Love’s wife takes the reins and spreads desire.

Storytellers, Ben Haggarty & Steph Brittain, chase a timeless theme through the forest of grown-up folktale, fairytale, epic and myth, to find the love we seek; the love we fear; the love that transcends; the love that burns, the love that heals; and the love that entangles sex and death and rebirth.

Expect strange attractions, eros, madness, romance, intoxication, and betrayal. Bring your heart and join the pursuit of the eternal mystery of, ‘what is this (crazy little) thing called love’?

SUITABLE: adults 16+
RUNNING TIME: 120mins plus interval
