At last! The time is almost here! Our 3 week run opens in just 12 days! HERO -the show we have been working on and rehearsing since October last year- comes to the Leicester Square Theatre for a 3 week run at the end of February!
Théâtre Libre presents:
HERO
Paul Sockett, Jan Kumah, Mark Lee, Rebekah Roe in HERO at Tristan Bates 2013
Written by Laura Bess Jernigan
Co-Directed by Jo Bunnell-Thompson and Kaitlin Argeaux
Movement by Justyna Ziarek
“Every choice has a cost...”
Long ago the gypsies were visited by Hero, and each year since they come together to celebrate and tell her tale - so that it may never be forgotten...
So come in! Gather round on this All Hero's Eve! Hear the legend of the HERO...and what happened to her after she saved the world.
Using movement, dance, and live music, we spin a mythical tale of adventure and sacrifice – exploring what it means to be a HERO.
