THE SHOWS

Yes: A piece created by Anica Boulanger-Mashberg as part of BlueCow Theatre’s CowShed writing program, Yes, is a series of dramatic and comedic scenes inspired by found images from historical photography collections which give a nostalgic feel to the show.

But something is revealed that will change their relationships and lives forever.

The Chair: A psycho-drama which looks into the psyche of a patient as they reveal their innermost secrets, thoughts and desires to their therapist and we explore their minds. What will the prognosis be?
