The Crick Crack Club presents
A DANCE WITH THE MINOTAUR’S SISTER
Performance storytelling by Steph Brittain
A King breaks a promise.
A Queen takes passion in hand.
A Prince becomes a feared prisoner.
And Ariadne dances.
Storyteller, Steph Brittain unravels a web of love, loss, betrayal, and bees - tracing the footsteps of Ariadne to a place before the maze and before the thread.
From a forest dance floor to the labyrinth’s dark passages, and beneath the starry skies of Naxos, A Dance with the Minotaur’s Sister weaves an intricate tapestry of strength, courage, and desire - a story as old as myth, told with the living pulse of now.
Tipping ancient Greek mythology into a new perspective, this is a story of a bull, a boy, his sister, a labyrinth and what happens when the hero leaves.
Ariadne is waiting - pulsing with joy and fire. Join the dance.
RUNNING TIME: Approx 70 minutes without interval
SUITABLE FOR adults 18+
CONTENT This performance contains references to sex, threat and violence, contextualised within a paradigm of mythic narrative, archetype and metaphor
STEPH BRITTAIN: Steph Brittain’s love for storytelling developed whilst studying Kathak dance in Paris and Delhi and continued to grow during her MA in Drama and Movement therapy. Steph trained in performance in France and at the Drama Centre London, and in storytelling with Ben Haggarty, Jo Blake, Nick Hennessey and Nell Phoenix. She is a member of storytelling ensemble Pandvani 108, is a performer in the Crick Crack Club’s Stories in the Dark and Beholders Share projects, and she can sing!
