More theatrical magic from the celebrated Theatre de Complicite ...

Lucie Cabrol is a wild, tiny woman born into a peasant family in France in 1900

Abandoned by her lover, Jean, and banished by her family, she becomes an outcast

She survives her second life by smuggling goods across the border

But it is not until her third life - her afterlife - that she discovers the survival of something more than bare human existence - the survival of hope and love

"In Simon McBurney's exhilarating production the story becomes an unsentimental evocation of peasant life, a hymn to the tenacity of love and a Brechtian fable about the world's unfairness ... Theatre Complicite's brilliant technique is used to express Berger's ideas ... Complicite have matured into greatness" ~ Michael Billington, Guardian
