Man or Bear

Would you rather be alone in the woods with a man or a bear?'Inspired by the viral question that sparked a global conversation, Man or Bear is a fast-moving, darkly comic new play about fear, friendship and survival.

Blending kitchen-sink realism with movement and music, it follows a mother and teenage daughter who seek refuge with a stranger.

And then there's the bear.Funny, fierce and devastating, Man or Bear shines a light on the stories women tell, the friendships they forge and the resilience they summon to survive in an increasingly dangerous world.CreditsKatie Hurley: Creator, Performer & ProducerSarah Hehir: Creator & WriterUrsula Martinez: Director & DramaturgAmaia Naima Aguinaga: PerformerLesley Ewen: PerformerAnna Arthur (Croydonites): Producer (Edinburgh)Nevena Stojkov: Movement DirectorJovana Backovic: Sound DesignerImogen Clarke: Lighting DesignerMoa Johansson: DesignerMillie Graham: Technical Stage ManagerMadelaine Moore: Associate Director
