Wicked Old Sod

Event Date: 
18/01/2017 - 7:00pm to 19/01/2017 - 7:00pm
Venue: 
Bike Shed Theatre, Exeter

She is an archetypal anarchist.

The watcher on the boundary. The rebel. The fool. The gossip. The crazy old bag sitting next to you on the bus. That which is rejected, broken, manipulated and controlled by our fear of her. She is the dark dream of our broken hearts demanding to be reclaimed. The refugee. The ‘mad’. The lost and the lonely, the wounded souls behind the mask of our ‘all about me’ culture.

Disconnected from our source how do we navigate our way through the chaos surrounding us, how do we reclaim our humanity?
