The theatre company Les Enfants Terribles are dedicated to creating original, innovative and exciting theatre that challenges, inspires and entertains. The man who founded his creative team is the actor and playwright Oliver Lansley. Well known to television viewers as the man who took on the extraordinary task of portraying the iconic radio and television star Kenny Everett in the 2012 biopic The Best Possible Taste, there is so much more to this versatile actor than portraying in wonderful style a man wrecked by personal demons.

Les Enfants Terribles To Bring Award Winning Show To The Unity Theatre.
For over 10 years, Les Enfants Terribles have been dedicated to creating innovative, inspirational and exciting theatre that continually challenges and transports audiences to weird and wonderful worlds. On Wednesday 10th April the company comes to the Unity Theatre, Liverpool with their award-winning Edinburgh Fringe sell-out show The Trench.
The Trench, which is written and stars award-winning Oliver Lansley (Kenny Everett in B.B.C.4’s The Best Possible Taste) blends live music, puppetry and physical performance as not everything in the darkness of the trench is what it seems when a strange world is discovered beneath the mud and death. Inspired by the true story of a miner who became entombed in a tunnel during World War One, this is an epic journey of salvation as the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur, as he questions what’s real, what’s not and whether it even matters?
