Trifle Gathering Productions - A Curious Evening Of Dance and Rap with the Ogden Sisters
Saturday
01/12/2012
8pm
Tickets : £10/ £9 conc.
Lettie Ogden has a gift. Born in 1867, the youngest of four girls, Lettie begins to experience ‘raps’ from the other side following the tragic deaths of her father and her twin sister Vivienne.
Desperate to escape the brutal upbringing inflicted on them by the hated housekeeper Mrs Skunt, her two older sisters Adeline and Constant take it upon themselves to take their show on the road and to share Lettie’s gift with anyone who will listen.
With the help of a Spiritual Telephonic Diaphragm which allows them to communicate directly with The Beyond, the famous sisters take audiences on a journey to the astral plane. What they discover there (following cottage pie eating, blind folded astral travel and being chased by an Anatolian) is at once sad, funny and heartening.
