Death and the King's Horseman
By Wole Soyinka
5 STARS
Sunday Times, Time Out
'One of the great creations of 20th-century theatre.' Sunday Times
'Rich and Rewarding' The Times 'Spectacularly beautiful staging bursting with life.' Independent on Sunday
Nigeria 1943. The King is dead, and tonight his Horseman must escort him to the Ancestors.
As Elesin Oba dances through the closing marketplace, flirting with the women, pursued by his praise-singer and an entourage of drummers, he promises to honour the ancient Yoruba custom of ritual suicide.
Set against the conflict of indigenous and invader, Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka's extraordinary play examines the transition from living to dead to examine the essence of corruption and power of human will. Death and the King's Horseman is a Travelex £10 ticket production.
until 17 June
