One can have enough of sex, music, honour, ambition, high command…but no one can ever have enough Wealth!”

​

Following their acclaimed production of Euripides Bacchae (New College Oxford & Gardzienice), Thiasos presents Aristophanes’ hilarious satire about how to deliver what everyone is after: WEALTH. Ploutos will bring you songs, dances, feasts and farts set in the anarchic world of the shadow puppet-hero Karaghiozi.

Songs of Lear had its international premiere during Fringe Festival in Edinburgh in August 2012, where it received three prestigious awards: Scotsman Fringe First, Herald Archangel and Musical Theatre Matters Special Award. 

Songs of Lear was also enlisted on the very top of The List as the highest ranked performance during the 2012 festival.
