Angel: Albatross

‘Albatross’ is a clown show about belonging, that explores the realms of queerness and identity, ridicule and hilarity, darkness and understanding, and ultimately acceptance, through the eyes of a lonely gay bird. A joyous celebration of light-as-a-feather fun with a troubled heart, ‘Albatross’ is a contemplation on stress, anxiety, addiction and trauma, but as a bird cos it’s so much easier that way.
An antithesis to corporate Pride, come celebrate the rough edges that shape the queer experience in a system built on fascism, in a world that’s also on fire.

“Vulnerable and hilarious, Albatross is a preposterous physical poem, scrawled in chip vinegar by a drunk bird in a jumpsuit” – Lucy Hopkins

“…like the intensity of an 80s era Black Flag punk gig whilst simultaneously being cradled by five Kate Bush’s…by far the stand-out show of Fringe 2023 for me, a true, unique voice has been unleashed”
