Lucy Foster in Co-Production with Improbable, in association with Ovalhouse
Created by: Lucy Foster with Chloe Dechery, Philip Eddolls, Lucinka Eisler, Ian William Galloway, Simone Kenyon, Matilda Leyser and Nick Powell.
Dates
24 – 26 April
Fanciful stagings of the escapades of swashbuckling female pirates of the past, combined with intimate stories of personal piracy in the performers’ own lives. See these bloodthirsty damsels out-sail, out-think, and out-fight every man on the high seas. How did they do it? How does a slip-of-a girl subdue a ship of salty sea dogs? Could she still do it today? Has her 21st century counterpart got the guts to stick a dagger between her teeth, fire a broadside and make off with the booty?
In The Pirate Project three women set sail in search of their inner pirate. Ha Harrrr!
