Edinburgh Fringe: Two Tigers musical about New Zealand-born writer Katherine Mansfield
August 2 @ 1:15 pm - August 27 @ 2:30 pm
Two Tigers is a kaleidoscopic musical drama about New Zealand-born modernist writer Katherine Mansfield, who lived and died with the Furies at her heels, and her turbulent love affair with John Middleton Murry, who ensured her legacy.
Since Sue Casson‘s musical was first staged for the centenary of Mansfield’s birth, the reputation of the spirited short-story writer has steadily grown, while the man who brought her work to public attention is all but forgotten.
The truly modern story of these literary pioneers is re-imagined for the centenary of her death this year.
‘Haunting original songs’ (Scotsman).
