Details:

The gods are in the betting shops, the gods are in the café,

The gods can’t afford the deposit on their flat …

Winged sandals tearing up the pavement,

Me, you, everyone, Brand New Ancients.

Unfolding on the edges of the city, Brand New Ancients discovers the myths of modern times in the lives of two

families as they collide, connect and come apart – all racing towards a violent conclusion.

Poet and rapper Kate Tempest tells an everyday epic over an exhilarating live score played by tuba, cello, violin,

drums and electronics, that finds the gods of today all around us and reveals that our true heroes are much closer

that we think.

Brand New Ancients took London by storm last year. We are working with Kate Tempest and Battersea Arts Centre

to re-work the show especially for Mayfest in Bristol Old Vic’s beautiful auditorium.

Winner of the 2013 Ted Hughes Prize for innovation in poetry.
