Description A new, original physical theatre piece exploring ignorance and folly through the eyes of the Yurodivy, the holy fool in the Russian tradition : the trickster figure who flouts conventions and 'moral' laws of behaviour. A highly charged performance drawing on Russian folk songs, incantations and skillful physicality.
