The Good,
The Bad and The Poultry
A fun, family friendly, outdoor, cowboy chicken, street theatre show!
Two chickens, a turkey and ‘Hennio Morricone’ (the live poultry band) along with audience members of all ages; work together to explore being brave in the face of ‘danger’ to create the grand shootout finale of every cowboy film evermade. Join in throughout and help figure out who stole the giant golden egg...
It's high noon, and the cockerels must crow... draw their guns and go and hide....
Do you feel clucky punk?
“The real winners are this young audience… this simple, accessible bit of theatre proves quite a coup for all ages.”
