One of the most talked about productions at the Edinburgh Fringe 2007 - the multiple-award-winning Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea- is coming to The Nuffield Theatre at Lancaster University.

Fresh from a world tour that took them to Sri Lanka, Singapore, New York and Australia, this stunning debut by multi disciplinary company 1927 features a series of comic scenes in which live performers interact seamlessly with animation and film. Hapless cats, gun-toting gingerbread men and cross-dressing devils all make an appearance in a strangely beautiful mix of fractured fairy tales.

Blending silent film, live music, performance and storytelling, 1927 take their audience on a hilariously funny, surreal journey through an enchanting, skewed and sinister world. It’s a deadly little Hallowe’en treat...

‘Perfectly timed, funny and gorgeous... Talent spotters take note: there’s a frighteningly gifted new British theatre company on the scene’ –The Times
