Bitter Fruit

29 May – 1 December 2000

A play-within-a-play, Bitter Fruit had at its heart the retelling of the myth of Hyphaestus, god of fire and forge.

The offstage antics of actor-manager Piota and his cast of actors and musicians formed the principle drama of the show, as lust and jealousy threatened to tear the company apart, spilling onstage in a shocking finale that blurred real life with fantasy. The tour included a performance at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, London.
