Creature.

We are proud to support the return of Akram Khan’s and English National Ballet’s production of Creature to Sadler’s Wells Theatre in London on 22 March – 1 April 2023. Creature is an unearthly tale of exploitation and human frontiers inspired by Georg Büchner’s expressionist classic Woyzeck, with shadows of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Drawing on themes of abandonment, isolation and the fragility of the mind, Creature is the tale of an outsider and the search for belonging.
