Summer time in London wouldn’t be complete without a generous helping of free arts entertainment at ‘the king of alfresco venues’, The Scoop at More London. Presenting an impressive programme of free fringe, music and award-winning theatre and film the More London Free Festival takes place at The Scoop at More London; a sunken, 1000-seater, riverside amphitheatre on the South Bank with stunning views of the Tower of London and Tower Bridge.

 

Free Theatre  06-31 Aug 2014:
Weds to Sunday: The Scoop’s award-winning resident company Gods and Monsters Theatre presents The Ring Cycle Plays. Devised by Phil Willmott and Mervyn Millar, produced by Suzanna Rosenthal and adapted from Richard Wagner’s librettos by Lisa Kuma, Wagner’s celebrated adaptation of Viking myths, presented on this occasion without the operatic scores, remains one of the most powerful and influential tales of sword and sorcery ever written, directly inspiring The Lord of the Rings and many other fantasy and sci-fi classics. Join Gods and Monsters Theatre as they bring an extraordinary cast of gods, giants, nymphs, dwarfs and human characters to life, revealing how mortals and immortals fall under the spell of a powerful ring, possession of which brings the chaos and glory of absolute power. The story unfolds over four hours interspersed with generous intervals and builds into an unforgettable, family friendly evening of mythical romance, comedy and drama. Catch them on different nights or see them all in one epic visit. 18:00-18:45 The Rhine Gold, 19:00-19:45 The Valkyrie, 20:30-21:15 Siegfried, 21:30-22.15 Twilight of the Gods.
