Dimitri is madly in love with Xander, but that’s rather illegal in The Old City. They plan to escape to safety via the enchanted forest, where the fairies have some rather serious problems of their own following the disappearance of the Fairy Queen. When the fairies and mortals meet, things get messy – but our fairytale-hating Narrator is loving it...
An 'A Midsummer Night’s Dream' and Gilbert and Sullivan-inspired mashup, ‘Steep Themselves in Night’ is a contemporary musical fairytale with a twist or two… but more importantly it’s a warning to us all about letting rogue narrators run away with their stories.
