Score Tickets to L'orchestre d'Hommes-Orchestres Performs Tom Waits
A wacky, unimaginable interpretation of the gravel-voiced raconteur.
Hailing from Quebec and pairing choreographed chaos with the "fractured rhythms, black humour and gleeful surrealism" of Tom Waits' music, L'orchestre d'Hommes-Orchestres are gloriously mad.
The four-man troupe are accompanied by the deadpan duo the New Cackle Sisters, in a show that emphasises vaudeville and cabaret elements with a chaotic slapstick sensibility. Waits' work takes on new form, from gravel-voiced and louche, to an eccentric offering with vim and vigour. Surrounded by detritus and found objects, their stage presence is infectious as they play with various objects- bellows, spaghetti, a tin bath, balloon powered-melodica.
This wacky, unimaginable interpretation is taking place across three nights at Q Theatre (March 22 - 24).
