New Writing, Horror
Birdwatching
Black Bright Theatre Company
Aug 12-24
School friends Amelia, Poppy and Lauren are wild
camping in the Northumberland forest. As the woods darken around them and
tensions flare, a watchful presence takes hold over the camp. A perfect
boiling pot of paranoia, superstition and adolescent insecurity ensues
that hangs on a chilling question: who is watching who? With female, queer
and neurodivergent perspectives centre stage, Birdwatching is a new folk
horror about the female experience that doesn’t look away. Black Bright
Theatre Company returns to the Edinburgh Fringe following the success of
their five-star, award nominated debut, The Hunger.
