    Tinderbox

    Tickets £12-£8 (+Booking Fee)
    What happened when Hans Andersen visited Charles Dickens at his home in Kent, in 1857? Music frames comedy, Gothic drama and family tensions, illuminated by the power of the imagination.

    Tinderbox - a new musical stagework – dramatizes, using their own words, an explosive moment in July 1857, when world-famous stage and fiction-writers Charles Dickens and Hans Christian Andersen met at Dickens’ family home in Kent. Engaging contemporary music with a romantic flavour frames comedy, mesmerism and gothic performance-interludes, revealing the literary passions which make their work relevant today, as well as the tensions between the authors ... against the background of the personal crisis Charles and his wife Catherine face.
