Aeneas Faversham Forever – The Penny Dreadfuls
Pleasance Courtyard
VICTORIAN London, and Rufus Hambledon is getting on with life. That is until his wife is murdered by Lucius Frost. Suddenly the successful children's author is swept up in Frost's wicked scheme. Joined by ex-policeman McAllister, Hambledon vows to find Frost and put a stop to his evil plan.

This production is simply brilliant. The troupe dominates the stage with their ludicrous characters and the script excels with absurdity whilst staying coherent. The Dreadfuls charmed the sell-out crowd with their refreshing take on the sketch show.

Until Monday
