Let your senses be seduced with the playfully anarchic and darkly sexy world of Bluebeard: A Fairytale for Adults.
Milk Presents unravels the tale of a violent nobleman in the habit of murdering his wives and the attempts by one of them to avoid the fate of her predecessors.
Using pedal to produce power, chains and pulleys to wreak revenge, homespun contraptions and cabaret song Bluebeard: A Fairytale For Adults is a feast of raw entertainment with seductive storytelling at its heart.
Bluebeard was nominated for a Total Theatre Award and Milk Presents are associate artists of The Point, Eastleigh.
