Icarus In The Underworld

Programme cover

After you have soared and failed, what then?
After you have opened the box?
What happens after destiny?
What happens After-life,
  Under-world
On the other side of the Styx?

Beyond the wood of despair,
What then?
When you have your own personal fury?
Once you have made them weep?
What follows fate?
Hope.
What follows hope?
Charity.
What follows then?
Poetry perhaps...


Ludamus - We play
  We have fun
We make poetry

Philosophy:

The company has maintained its simple philosophy since the beginning, and it is a fundamental aspect of everything we do:

Ensemble  - Working as a whole company, all of equal worth and status
Access  - To work for both company and audience
Risk  - Experimentation & play with the aim of making the work truly "ours"
