The Mystery of the Raddlesham Mumps
Oldham Library, Greaves Street, OL1 1AL, Oldham.
Saturday 29th February 2020 12noon and 3pm £3
A gothic tale which will make you and your family shudder and laugh out loud!
Celebrated poet and broadcaster MURRAY LACHLAN YOUNG (Radio 4, Radio 2 and BBC 6 Music poet in residence,) presents his thrilling new family performance.
After the windswept double funeral of his parents, 7-year-old Crispin (or Crispin de Quincy de Faversham Clumps to give him his full name) inherits his ancestral home – Raddlesham Mumps. He finds himself in a huge empty house with only an ancient butler for company. And when that butler, Kenilworth, begins to tell him about the bizarre and hilarious deaths of his deeply eccentric ancestors the story takes flight on darkly comic wings.
In this brand-new show Murray mixes compelling story-telling and poetry with a brilliant score, a healthy dose of physical theatre and a touch of silliness.
Suitable ages 7+(although we think many 5 and 6 year olds will enjoy it too with parental guidance!).
