About

Nic Green: Cock and Bull (BSL interpreted)

Originally conceived for the eve of the 2015 UK general election, Cock and Bull sees three females convene to perform their own, alternative, party conference. Exploring power, voice, agency and sustainability, they use the most heard phrases from Conservative governmental rhetoric, to dismantle and redress dominant paradigms of power and politics.

Responding to the meaninglessness and repetition of empty political promise, the privilege of the governmental elite and the deep discontent of an increasingly disproportionate and divided society, this work is part protest, part catharsis, part exorcism. It becomes, in part, a demonstration of togetherness.

Cock and Bull is a transforming choreography of words and a passionate speech of the body, underpinned with the real-time energy of political dissatisfaction and Tory tongue-speak.

Cock and Bull won the Total Theatre Award for best visual/physical theatre in Edinburgh 2016.

Performed by Nic Green, Rosana Cade and Laura Bradshaw    

"Astonishing…Unforgettable performances" **** The Scotsman 

"A battering ram against the political establishment... it's also cathartic: a show that sweats out the toxins of divisive austerity.” What’s On Stage
