Wright&Grainger are two storytellers and musicians from the fields and lanes of rural North Yorkshire, UK. They make work wound from spoken word and soaring live music. They’ve travelled the world with their shows ORPHEUS, EURYDICE, THE GODS THE GODS THE GODS, HELIOS and HALF MAN || HALF BULL. They’ve won a heap of awards, gained a heap of critical acclaim and, most importantly, made a heap of pals along the way.
ORPHEUS
About this event
Dave is turning 30, sat at the bar.
Eurydice is a tree nymph.
And Bruce Springsteen is on the stereo.
The internationally award winning ORPHEUS returns to FRINGE WORLD for the first time since 2020. After touring across the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Bali and New York, Wright&Grainger (HELIOS, THE GODS THE GODS THE GODS) head back to Perth with their heart stopping retelling of an ancient story. Wound from soaring melodies and searing spoken word, ORPHEUS is a story about side streets, dive bars and ancient gods - and about how far you'd go for someone you love.
