Man or 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.
