A production of Jean Cocteau’s Les Enfants Terribles, in a new version by Helen Shutt, will premiere at the White Bear Theatre on 26 July 2012 (previews from 24 July).
Elisabeth and Paul, siblings orphaned in their adolescence, build themselves a private fantasy world in the confines of one room, in which laughter and play soon give way to a dangerous game too magical to resist.
Les Enfants Terribles features Alice Beaumont, Josh Taylor, Max Krupski and Alma Fournier-Carballo, and is designed by Amber Dernulc with costume design by Alice Buckingham.
It runs at the White Bear Theatre until 11 August.
