Maskerade

Take a pinch of Phantom of the Opera, fold in the Marx Brothers and Monty Python and warm hilariously under the satirical glow of the late Sir Terry Pratchett for an evening of sustained silliness for the whole family.

A ghost haunts the Ankh-Morpork Opera House, wreaking operatic vengeance on the likes of La Triviata and Der Rosencrown and leaving bodies and notes with exclamation marks in its wake.

Enter Discworld’s most famous Witches, Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg. Rich on the proceeds of an x-rated cookery book and in search of a third member for their double coven, they proceed to make everything even more ridiculous than the average opera.

After the sell-out success of Wyrd Sisters, Bawds bring another Discworld to the ADC Theatre with their unique mix of film, music and comedy, directed by a former President of the Footlights and dedicated to the proposition that “in opera, no-one can hear you scream”.
