About This Show

Celebrate Halloween with everybody’s favorite trashcan troubadours as they unleash all new songs in Danses Macabres, partly based on the nightmarish writings of H.P. Lovecraft, “the 20th century’s greatest practitioner of the classic horror tale” (Stephen King). Dress up for two nights of signature mayhem and macabre antics from Shockheaded Peter’s “brilliantly twisted” (The Guardian) Brechtian cabaret band — singer Martyn Jacques, drummer Adrian Huge, and double bassist Adrian Stout. Imagine the spirit of the Sex Pistols, the raw passion of left bank Paris and the savagery of Dickensian under-culture.

“A journey into wild emotion which passes right through melodrama and out the other side into bizarre beauty.” – Evening Standard
