COCKROACH
Bang average blokes. Barry, Brian & Bean. Unlikeable, untalented and generally underwhelming - so they're destined for greatness.
An eccentric drag king comedy from the UK by the fools of The Barry, Brian & Bean Company.
Set in the 1980s with a soundtrack full of hits, 'COCKROACH' explores how pity, loneliness and downright delusion creates a proper clown. Be prepared for sexual tension, fiery '80s karaoke and the occasional emu.
★★★★★ "A triumph across the board, and an absolutely hilarious one at that. Taking the drag king comedy world to new heights." London Pub Theatre
"Masterpiece. One of the most insane, laugh-out-loud funny things I've seen in a very long time." Carol Saint Martin
