Event Navigation
Remythed takes the myths and legends from the backgrounds of its performers and reshapes, reforms, and retells them. From Scheherazade to Anansi, by way of Lady Godiva – see our stories in ways you’ve never seen them before, in a show full of insight, dreams and wisdom that’ll leave you joyful, a bit tearful and questioning every story you’ve ever been told. LGBTQIA+ people have always been here; it’s time our collective myths reflected that fact. Remythed delights in a joyful reimagination of what queer history could look like.
Remythed began life at the VAULT Festival in London in 2023, where it won Show of the Week. It is the debut show of Bet’n Lev Theatre. Bet’n Lev Theatre was founded by Artistic Directors Roann Hassani McCloskey (Who Murdered My Cat, Hakawatis) and Joel Samuels (Cutting the Tightrope, Sugar Coat, Fever Pitch, Holby City). Reflecting on their heritages, Bet’n is an Anglicised version of the word “Belly” in Hebrew and Arabic, while Lev is Hebrew for “Heart.”
