Emma Rice‘s theatrical spectacle comes to cinemas in the form of this HD recording of a performance at York Theatre Royal.

Angela Carter’s final novel, published in 1991, centres on twin showgirls who form part of a theatrical dynasty. In Rice’s hands it becomes a much-acclaimed all-singing, all-dancing slice of pure entertainment.
