This is the epic journey of an elephant headed Hindu god who seeks to go one-on-one with Hitler. As our hero Ganesh cuts a swathe through Germany we embark on a wildly inventive ride through history, where sacred icons and rituals become weapons of theatrical production.
‘'The company’s Director, Bruce Gladwin, is widely admired as a theatrical genius and the show’s long development is obvious in the finished product,’‘ Marion Potts, Artistic Director Malthouse Theatre
