Charlatan

Written and directed by Tony Tanner

A lush, sexy and painful revealing of the life of the world’s greatest impresario, Sergei Diaghilev. Revel in an orgy of life, loves, and personal/professional loss voiced by the master himself. Celebrate the Centenary of the Ballets Russes storming Paris and creating a revolution in the Arts.

"as relevant today as any sharp, sassy sitcom . . . a cracking good story. And one that needs to be told."
One4Review

"Tanner becomes Diaghilev. . . he takes us back to the excitement of 1909 and the Ballet Russes Paris debut"
The Scotsman

"Original, evocative material performed by a renowned actor/director/writer that delights and endears. . . In an age of mass-produced entertainment, this feels like a special secret to be cherished."
Hairline Fringe

". . . a fascinating story, riddled with controversy, rule bending and boundary pushing. . camp, bitchy, wise-cracking portrayal of the Ballet Russes' founding father. . . completely engaging and practically perfect . ."
The List
