See Forkbeard Fantasy

The wonderfully inventive Forkbeard Fantasy who delighted audiences last year with The Fall of the House of the Usherettes return to the Lyric Studio with their new show The Barbers of Surreal (left) from 2 March. Set in a beauty parlour where the traditional skills of hairdressing have been enhanced by recent breakthroughs in genetic engineering, the piece promises to take the company to new heights of lunacy. Just why, for example, is the Egg Shampoo behaving strangely? The yolk, will no doubt be on you.
