Dark Kingdom
An Adaptation of Kevin Barry's Ernestine and Kit and Wintersongs
“Oh, a monster! Did you realise, Sarah, that monsters are all around us.”

Ride shot gun with the ensemble of crones, crows and boys with pesticide eyes as they pull hand brake turns through the dark kingdom, where hidden treasures and warnings of the mundane are revealed.
