Theatre/Drag
Stag King (WIP)
A solo show about personhood, productivity and what happens when your role is made redundant.
Cernunnos: the ancient god of the hunt - half man, half stag, and halfcut most of the time since his business collapsed AGAIN.
This work in progress performance lecture / drag show explores the varied nature of Cernunnos’s previous jobs, including: Revered God, Stag Night Entertainer and, since 2020, Drag King. This is a show about how we survive and find meaning in our lives while many of our established sources of identity disappear. As ‘traditional’ gender roles transform, unemployment soars and automation has the potential to rule out whole professions, what can we learn from a cervitaur whose working life peaked in the palaeolithic era?

With her warm stage persona Liberty lulls us into a fascinating world which she then mischievously turns it on its head, delighting and provoking us into more nuanced thought. - Haley McGee, Solo Show Creation Lab
We encourage patrons to wear a mask while moving around the building and when seated in the theatre.
Seating is not socially distanced. The theatre is ventilated before and after every performance with regular and thorough cleaning of touch points. Hand sanitiser and face masks are available onsite.
Access
We regret that our theatre is up a flight of stairs with no wheelchair access available.
