CUPID’S REVENGE – Autumn Tour 2021
After several years of winning acclaim in the comedy world for their humour-infused shows, New Art Club’s Tom Roden and Pete Shenton are reaffirming their commitment to dance and physical theatre in this new production. In part inspired by the myth of Cupid and Psyche, the performance sees dance, physical theatre, and comedy combine to capture the audience’s imaginations, moving effortlessly from silliness through to punching us in the gut with heartfelt, sometimes painful truths. Cupid’s Revenge touches on big ideas from evolution right through to Kerplunk and makes the fleeting act of holding hands the most perfect gesture of love.
Written and performed by Tom Roden and Pete Shenton, with music by Gareth Williams and set design by Will Holt.
