cockfight

The Office mashed with a cage fight.
A dangerously comic physical performance.
An emotive generational showdown.
A cockfight.

“Its physicality is masterful and its comedy biting”

DANCE AUSTRALIA

“And it is sidesplittingly hilarious and beautifully athletic and graceful.”

ABC ARTS

“Cockfight is a darkly comedic work that confronts the mindless violence associated with intergenerational male rivalry.”

THE AUSTRALIAN

 “A fun-filled romp combining humour and impressive physicality, sure to please comedy and dance fans alike.”

STAGE WHISPERS

“At times broadly comedic, with a Buster Keaton-esque physicality on show, Cockfight switches effortlessly to moments of beauty and poignancy”
