Take a one-on-one pause with the spirit of the Bramble. Growing in the woods, hedges and between neglected lands, this plant of the genus Rubus is called both weed and fruit depending on who, when and where you invoke its name. Many enjoying its berries and respecting or cursing its thorny branches. The Bramble invites you into conversation, story and somatic prompts to touch into our [human and non-human] communal experience of living on a presently threatened and rapidly changing planet through humour, sensation and honesty.

Together we will amble outdoors. Each performance will be around forty minutes, but its advised to leave an hour for comfort. The performance can be arranged to be seated outside and static rather than moving, but please request this in advance. In the event of rain umbrellas will be provided. We encourage you to write with any additional access needs or questions and well do our best to accommodate you.

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Show me the charities

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.

Theatre MAD
The Make A Difference Trust fights HIV & AIDS one stage at a time. Their UK and International grant-making strategy is based on five criteria that raise awareness, educate, and provide care and support for the most vulnerable in society. A host of fundraising events, including Bucket Collections, Late Night Cabarets, West End Eurovision, West End Bares and A West End Christmas continue to raise funds for projects both in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.
