Enter the magical world of this adult musical fairytale about lust, longing and temptation. The grounds of an English country manor are inhabited by goblins, fairy folk who sell exotic fruit that incites sexual pleasure beyond compare. Beware! Once a victim is fully satiated, the goblins and their fruit disappear forever!
Featuring a live three-piece band playing original jazz-rock fusion music. Inspired by the classic haunting poem Goblin Market by Christina Rossetti, this one-time children’s bedtime story was also published as a fantasy centerfold spread in Playboy magazine.
“The Enchantment is a ravishing production… a seductive, voluptuous and enveloping theatrical adventure… forget the world and give yourself over to this ravishing production.” — Colin Maclean, Edmonton Sun
