Animal

Two sisters prepare for society. One punch at a time.
‘This is such a gutsy challenging work – so worth catching – we will be talking about it for years.’
Stage Whispers

Animal thrusts the audience into the visceral confines of an abusive environment. Balancing harrowing intensity with intricate psychology, nerve-shredding brutality with jet-black humour, it's a vital and undogmatic exploration of misogyny.
