Showing @ Traverse Theatre 31 March – 1 April

From the winners of 2010’s TMA Award for Best Show for Children and Young People comes the world premiére of Caged, a dark retelling of popular fairytale Beauty and the Beast.

Directed by award-winning Scottish director Gill Robertson of Musselburgh-based Catherine Wheels Theatre Company, Caged explores the nature of two opposites coming inexplicably together in true love, in a reflection of the individual’s inability to conform and repress their inner selves.

Performed by Ros Sydney and Andy Manley, each have contributed to many of Catherine Wheels’ recent plays. Manley created the company’s recent production of White which went on to win three awards at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2010.

With so many awards under Catherine Wheels’ belts, this promises to be a high quality production with an interesting take on a classic tale – ideal for releasing your inner child.
