The Castle Builder

Vic Llewellyn & Kid Carpet

Presented at:

The Place as part of TOSTF London 2017.

‘Boisterous and innovative.’ British Theatre Guide

The Castle Builder is an emotional and hard rocking journey into the hearts and souls that exist on the outer limits of creativity and building regulations.

It tells the true story of an inmate in a Norwegian psychiatric institute who over five years built a castle on a remote headland. The show spirals from personal accounts into tales of other outsider artists who’ve been inspired to build extraordinary structures, alone, in secret, and without artistic validation from the real world.

Vic Llewellyn and Kid Carpet re-imagine these stories with visceral live music, dancing and projection.
