John Clare: The Madhouse Sessions

Enter the asylum room of forgotten 19th century "peasant" poet and visionary John Clare - where madness, laughter and genius combine.

In this powerful immersive theatrical experience, the walls of confinement melt away as Clare's memories, imagination and haunting visions of a world to come are brought vividly to life in rhyme, song, words and beats.

Join him in his beloved fields, drinking holes and in the depths of his brilliant, unique, tortured mind as he labours to complete his final masterpiece.

A man from the past. Relevant today. A warning for our future.
