About the Performances
Performed by Bad Taste Cru. In this re-imagining of Goethe’s “Faust”, drinking, gambling, womanizing, and general debauchery make the Speakeasy a perfect place for a man to lose his soul, as we see when Faust is manipulated, to both comic and tragic effect, into a deal with the devil where his very soul hangs in the balance.
Told through the intense physical and narrative dance style that Bad Taste Company have become renowned for, ‘Speakeasy’ features a unique fusion of world-class breaking combined with Lindy Hop, Charleston, and swinging big band music of the roaring 20s that taps into the spirit of gangsters, bootleggers, gamblers, flappers, and hep cats of the time.
Performed at various events throughout the UK
