Beowulf – A Thousand Years of Baggage

“breaking down the conventions of classical adaptations and celebrating an anarchic style that might not encompass every plot detail, but captures a visceral truth that traditionalists may have forgotten.” - The Scotsman

“boldly theatrical, full of bravado and even as it playfully tears the narrative apart, it never forgets that it has a story to tell. “ - The Guardian

“a glorious din that transforms the story of Beowulf into something that’s fun and sexy, as well as pioneering the sort of DIY musical which, in recession-blighted times, is the rough-hewn, hand-knitted future.” - Herald Scotland

The Fall And Rise of the Rising Fallen

BB&B concoct their alter ego in the form of a concept punk band in this rock concert/pageant play.

“Director Mallory Catlett orchestrates the chaos strewn around a catastrophically claustrophobic set with wit and panache so that the boxing-ring-like venue is stage, living room, and oil derrick, sometimes all during the same scene.” - Superfluities

“This isn’t a play whose point is for you to fall in love with the protagonist - this a play whose point is for you stamp your feet and sing-a-long and then get mad because your idols disappoint you. But maybe they never asked to be your idols in the first place? Maybe you just decided that, and you should try being your own idol
for a while.” - Culturebot
