This week Kindle Theatre bring The Furies out of hibernation for some choice dates in the wondrous cities of Cambridge and Wolverhampton. The Furies is theatre which resembles a rock gig. It’s a glam-rock music-driven interpretation of Aeschylus’s tale of Clytemnestra, in which the three vengeful Furies are summoned to exact punishment upon a brutish Agamemnon.

This will be exciting year for Kindle. The company has just enlisted the services of an independent producer, Jo Salkilld and are putting together a programme of work for the coming year, to include development of the solo projects previewed at Bristol Ferment last month and the development of ‘Come Heavy Sleep’, a new music-theatre twist on Othello, tantalisingly glimpsed in a work-in-progress at the RSC/Pilotnight event last July. Before then however, audiences will have to fend off the …. TERRIFYING SOUND OF THE FURIES !!!!!
