Awakening in an unfamiliar place, the wanderer must find his way through the twisting Labyrinth, and face the beast that waits at the centre. Walking the Labyrinth is a dark, psychological re-imagining of the story of Theseus, combining live and recorded speech, electronic vocal distortion, original music, and 2000-year old poetry.
Music, sound design, and script by Peter Cavell, with quotations from Catullus, Seneca, Hesiod, Hyginus, Apollodorus, and Edwin Muir
Stage/technical management by Adriana Hyman
With Danielle Buonaiuto as the voice of Ariadne
"…a fascinating walk around the self…Cavell reworks the story with impressive technical command… Walking the Labyrinth is strongly recommended to Fringe fans who like to walk on the dark side and see the Minotaur's tale get a techno twist."
- James Reaney, London Free Press
"…well worth attending. The performance was amazing and Peter was able to captivate the audience throughout…"
- Stephanie Cicarelli, Voices.com
"Undeniable emotional power…both Theseus the monster are made far more human as they discuss their limits and assumed roles. Beliefs are challenged as are your assumptions. With evocative lighting, atmospheric music and powerful acting, you might never see this ancient story the same way again."
