The Holly and Oak Kings
Strange Town 11-14s
(Fri 11 Dec: 6:30pm & Sat 12 Dec: 8:30pm)
The night of the winter solstice, 4 cousins relegated to the basement begin to tell stories, it is the time for battle between the Holly and the Oak King. If the Oak King is defeated then we will be forever plunged into the wintry realm of darkness… but if the Holly King is defeated, is eternal summer really any better?
As the Kings battle on, everyone starts to wonder who they’re really rooting for.
