The Green Knight
About this event
Wild Geese Theatre Company presents…The Green Knight - a brand new show for children aged 7+ and their families. The Green Knight is a fun, imaginative take on the Arthurian poem written around 1400AD. The play follows the young Gawain as he journeys across Ancient Britain in search of the greatest sword-master of all time - Sir Bredbeddle, The Green Knight. Once found, The Green Knight acts as a mentor to Gawain, helping him on his quests, and supporting him through difficult challenges as he tries to prove himself worthy of becoming one of the Knights of the Round Table. This story is about how we learn from one another and the bonds we forge when we work together and never give up. The show is set in period, so swords and shields and armor, but there will undoubtedly be moments where we throw historical accuracy to the wind in favor of something more fun.
Our work is interactive and immersive, with moments in the show where all the audience can get involved. At Wild Geese, we put young people in the driver’s seat and provide a platform for them to experience theatre whilst engaging creatively with it at the same time. Our shows are always raucous, fun, and uniquely personable - we strive to ensure each and every audience member is engaged and involved every step of the way. Music is also integral to our productions, where we often combine modern electronic scores with medieval instrumentals. With multi-configurational sets and props, we can pop up and perform anywhere that will have us!
