Peer Gynt: He’s a chancer, a dancer, a wannabe romancer, a liar, a schemer, a good for nothing day-dreamer.  You’re going to love him.

Written in 1867, Ibsen’s Peer Gynt is a fantastic voyage through one man’s life – brought screaming into the 21st century by YoCo in a spectacular, promenade production set deep in the tunnels underneath London Bridge Station.

Exploring familiar themes in an unconventional way, the story follows Peer as he walks a tightrope between fantasy and reality, good and evil, and eventually, heaven and hell – but in the end, how will he be judged?
