This production company is unlike any other and their creations are nothing short of amazing. Now they come to the Park Theatre to bring you 'Don't Sleep there are Snakes' Based on the true story and book by Daniel Everett PirahÆ [(n) pi'a'hÆ] a remote Amazonian tribe with a language no outsider has ever understood. Daniel Everett, a linguist and missionary, is sent into the jungle with a clear purpose: to learn their language and convert them to Christianity. But as he struggles to communicate, he uncovers a culture like nothing he's ever imagined. What he discovers blows apart modern linguistic theory, forcing him to question his faith and his understanding of what it means to be human. Following the critically acclaimed The Cabinet of Dr Caligari and Moby-Dick, the award winning ensemble, simple8, return with an adventure wrenched from the heart of the jungle, that traces how language, culture and experience shape us all.
