The Crick Crack Club presents: The Hairy Girl
Kersti Ståbi remixes a primal tale of wonder with the sheer force of Japanese Taiko drumming in this Scandinavian fairytale. For ages 16+

Once upon a time there was a king and a queen who had everything, except for a child... This is the very ordinary beginning to one of the wildest of Scandinavian fairytales.
Tatterhood - the wild twin, the unintended progeny, the loose cannon, the protector. Tatterhood, the Hairy Girl, thunders into the world on her goat, armed with a wooden spoon, beating up troll hags, saving her sister from a grim destiny, and using all her cunning to carve out a future for them both.
Kersti Ståbi remixes this primal tale of wonder with the sheer force of Japanese Taiko drumming. The result is power and beauty in equal measure.
N.B: The performance involves Taiko drumming – those sensitive to load noise levels are advised not to attend.
Running time: 65 mins approx (no interval)
