Practical Anatomy tells the true story of William Burke and William Hare, who killled sixteen of Edinburgh's poorest residents in 1827 and 1828 and sold their bodies to the ambitious Dr. Robert Knox. This world premiere musical uses a combination of music, new writing and found language to relate a grisly tale of profit, class and ethics.
