Shockheaded Peter is a madhouse cabaret music box filled with stories of misbehaving children meeting their untimely ends! These stories hail from one of the most infamous children’s books ever written, the German “Der Struwwelpeter” from 1845, and features music and lyrics by the world renown Tiger Lillies!
