Description

'Our modern life was built on the backs of the oppressed – if they were to demand repayment, would you be afraid?' In 1791, a voodoo ceremony begins the Haitian Revolution to end enslavement on the island. In the present, a man is haunted by ghosts in his city. From the creators of the highly acclaimed Splintered (***** (Guardian)) BOGEYMAN is a ghost story that playfully combines music, movement and history in the ultimate underdog story of resistance against the oppressor. Powerful, moving and ultimately uplifting, BOGEYMAN is a thrilling, genre-defying tale of hope, rebellion and connection.

One of the most fantastic shows I've seen. Incredible use of lighting and space, and a beautiful weaving of the past with the present. I was completely blown away. Definitely a must-see for the Fringe.
