This immersive theatre performance for young people is a joyful re-telling of classical myths and their Gods. A hybrid of a heart-stopping pop concert and a joyful hour of storytelling.

Come young, come old, the Gods are gathering, and you're invited…

A perfect piece of gig-theatre, with soaring melodies, genuine tenderness and hope that takes us on a euphoric journey of intimacy, death and faith…This is a truly life-affirming experience.

She is on a beach, looking at the stars.
He is on a bridge, just before dark.
They are about to fall, fast, wholesome and hard.
And The Gods are all gathering for the reckoning to start.

The Gods has a unique lyrical beauty that goes beyond words.
