Post subject:  'The Last Living Rose' sung in 'Three Kingdoms' play

'The evening features remarkable, bizarre song-based sequences, influenced by the physical style of companies such as Told By An Idiot and Filter, whose Ferdy Roberts features as detective number two. These include an unforgettable performance of ‘Rocky Raccoon’ and a climatic rendering of PJ Harvey’s ‘The Last Living Rose’ by a man in drag, amid a danse macabre featuring call girls in deer heads, Estonian pimps, a corpse and a chorus of cleaners, whirling around the hapless Iggy. Elsewhere a woman uncurls from a suitcase in which she has been smuggled; a mortician gruesomely dissects an apple; thugs beat up the set; and people dive through windows at every opportunity.'

Blimey!
