Circus City: Cocoon

Friday 10 October, 7pm

By Farrell Cox. Presented as part of the Circus City Festival.

Ever felt in desperate need of a haircut or a life reset? Wished your troubles away at the backwash unit? Immerse yourself in the salon, where you can be vulnerable amidst smells of hot hair. Four stories intricately weave with the complexities of disability and healthcare. A daring aerial theatre show celebrating resilience and unapologetic joy through humour, pop culture and hairdryers. 
 
Created by Farrell Cox, a playful theatre maker using her own experiences to tell stories, where audiences feel free to laugh, scream, chant or cry. Cocoon follows Farrell’s autobiographical solo show Ambivalence, which Lyn Gardner praises as: “So well thought through in every aspect.” 

This performance will be BSL interpreted.
