First look production images have been released for the murderous musical romp Burke & Hare, which runs at the New Wolsey Theatre in Ipswich from 6-21 May with livestream performances from 19 – 21 May.
Tom Wentworth’s black comedy of the infamous grave robbing double act sees three versatile actors, supplied with an array of hats, a variety of disguises and an extraordinary collection of accents play the entire cast of this notorious story – living and (soon to be) dead.
Burke & Hare, originally created by Jenny Wren Productions, premiered at Newbury’s Watermill Theatre in 2018. The upcoming production, directed by Abigail Pickard Price, was originally planned to be staged at the Ipswich venue as part of their 2020 season but was postponed two years due to the global pandemic.
