Something has taken root in this town. A recluse, a disappearance, a mysterious folk song. And then there’s you, Meles — a podcaster with a dying mother and a stalling career — about to stumble into something unfathomable. Something that could change everything. But is it your story to tell?

A folk tale about folk tales, the art of letting go, and the ethics of true crime, Badgers is a shape-shifting, mercurial new show from the team behind Outlier. Written by Malaika Kegode with music by Jakabol.

A Theatre Royal Plymouth Production, in association with Bristol Old Vic. A New Play by Malaika Kegode originally commissioned by Theatre Royal Plymouth.

Developed on Complicité’s Mudlarks International Residency.
