Who knew Seneca was such a badass? The School of Night launch into this play by the Roman stoic philosopher with monstrous creativity, crazy precision and cathartic violence. A historic express train into theatre’s subconscious and a definite must see....

Maybe I've led a charmed life, but nothing like Hercules, slaying monsters since a babe in the crib. A presentation I've never experienced before, Hercules Insane delivered fighting, interpretive dance, poetry, life and death, gods and monsters, and even SAD HERCULES!
