View all →About This Event
The performance of 'Sir Gawain and the Green Knight' is scheduled for 26 November 2026 at The Continental in Preston. This production offers a contemporary interpretation of the medieval tale. Tickets start from £7.00.
This bold, atmospheric retelling of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight fuses medieval myth with a striking contemporary soundscape.
A haunting medieval tale, the story emerges from the legends of King Arthur, blending myth, magic, and moral trial. Written by the mysterious Gawain Poet, it explores honour, temptation, and the fragile nature of human courage.
Reimagined through droning hurdy-gurdy and immersive synths, folk artist and electronic musician Oliver Cross shapes the musical world with 1980s-inspired synths and resonant hurdy-gurdy, this ancient story pulses with new, otherworldly life.
Alongside him, storyteller Jason Buck brings the tale vividly to life, his dynamic narration weaving seamlessly through shifting textures of sound.
Premiered to sold-out audiences in December 2025, this immersive production re-imagines a timeless Arthurian legend, summoning chivalry, peril, temptation, and enchantment for modern ears.
