The Ballad of Corona V

Working with young people who’ve had experience of the care system, Big House theatre company was never going to let a pandemic stop it. Indeed, it’s grasped the bull by its horns with ‘The Ballad of Corona V’, a darkly comic drama about the ’rona performed by a cast of 19. As far as we can gather, Maggie Norris’s production – which is written by David Watson – is a perambulatory affair, in which audiences travel through the scenes in groups no bigger than six. The show itself promises to be a riotous response to our rollercoaster of a year.
