Lancaster’s Dukes theatre is to première Feral, featuring live music, storytelling and the odd party trick, on November 2 before it goes on tour.

Sonya Moorhead has created and will perform Feral, which was inspired by her hitchhiking mission to Oban to find '60s folk legend and wild child Anne Briggs.

Feral asks why women are taking on more ‘mental load’ than ever before and includes live music by folk trio, The Greyhounds, drawing upon Briggs’s 1960s recordings of traditional ballads.

Feral will be performed in The Round and was created with support from The Dukes along with Kendal’s Brewery Arts Centre and Theatre by the Lake in Keswick via Route 555, an initiative designed to support the creation of new theatre in the North West.

It is recommended for anyone aged 14 plus.
