Mummers and Miracles

Hugh Lupton

A celebration of the songs, customs and stories of the Midwinter Season… a spicy well-mulled mixture of ghosts, angels, births, resurrections, snowfall, mice, music, mysteries and the Mari Lwyd.

impossibly engaging storytelling” The Guardian

He has toured both nationally and internationally and has performed at the RSC, the National Theatre and the Barbican, as well as at schools, community venues and arts centres the length and breadth of Britain. His repertoire ranges from Greek epic to Grimms Fairy Tales, from Norse and Celtic myth to East Anglian folk-tales, from the Great War to John Clare. Thematically his work often explores our place in the landscape and the deep cultural memories we carry.
