Picasso: Le Monstre Sacre
2 April – 5 April
A visceral, uncompromising portrait of Pablo Picasso 50 years after his death.
Undisputed genius, visionary artist, yet Picasso’s obsession often destroyed those he professed
to love. Brilliantly incarnated by Peter Tate in a challenging, powerful, intelligent study, Picasso passionately defends his reputation. It’s an explosive, deeply passionate voyage of self-revelation, leaving the audience as his jury. Should we condemn or forgive? How do we judge our great artists?
Adapted for solo performance and directed by Olivier Award winner Guy Masterson (last seen in Bath with his brilliant A Christmas Carol).
