The Trench is inspired by the true story of a miner who became entombed in a tunnel during World War One.
As the horror threatens to engulf him, he finds that not everything in the darkness is what it seems as he discovers a strange, new world beneath the mud and death. Setting off on a epic journey of salvation, the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur as he questions what’s real, what’s not – and whether it even matters…
The Trench blends Les Enfants Terribles’ trademark physical storytelling, verse, puppetry and live music to spellbinding effect.
