Cockroach

Nominated for Best Performance at Melbourne Fringe 2018

An amoral revenge tale for the #MeToo generation, ‘Cockroach’ is a blackly comic prose-poem/grunge-cabaret about female anger. When C wakes from a nightmare she finds herself transformed into a monstrous vermin. For too long she’s yearned to behave badly. Tonight’s her night of reckoning!   Disrupting Kafka and Ovid’s Metamorphoses ‘Cockroach’ explores the silencing following abuse and the transformations that occur from it.  Furious, funny and hopeful.
