A travelling show in  the 18th century – the showman has paid for the 2madman” Lemuel Gulliver and displays him in a cage. The madman is forced to perform his incredible tale: Gulliver’s Travels.  Gulliver is mad because he is consumed by misanthropy (hatred of humanity) and longs to be a “noble” horse. With  the aid of song and spectacle the travelling players perform the tale of Gulliver – with  the “real” Gulliver playing himself.

GULLIVER’S TRAVELS has been called the greatest satirical work ever written – in an age where the world once again seems to have turned upside down Swift’s caustic wit and irreverent honesty have never been more relevant.
