Description

Connor is a nineteen year-old introvert, obsessed with comic books and superheroes. He’s at his happiest when he’s alone with his own thoughts. Except... for the next three days, he’s not. In a world where criminals store their consciousnesses in others to evade capture, Connor now finds himself with an eccentric, charismatic and quite possibly homicidal newcomer in his head, and a fight for control begins. The Fish Cage is a thrilling, funny and intense look into how a family’s loyalties shift when control starts to slip away. Because when you share a mind with someone, nothing stays hidden for long…

This production contains themes and emotional discussions of sexual abuse, and violence.  A full list of trigger warnings for the show can be found at Greedy Pigs website here.

Greedy Pig Theatre Company is run by Bath Spa University Alumni Douglas Murdoch and Lex Kaby. At Greedy Pig we enjoy playing and experimenting with form. Whether that’s a dystopian comedy play, a physical movement piece, a tragic minimalist musical, or whatever tool best fits the story we wish to tell. We aim to explore the human experience and perceptions of normality through every lens possible. After all, when it comes down to it, we are Greedy!

All purchases for show at the Alma now have a suggested donation to the theatre and inhouse company of £2.00

You can remove this donation by changing the amount to £0.00, but please do consider offering your generosity to help us continue to offer great theatre at affordable prices.

The Alma Theatre has been serving the community for 25 years and has never been the recipient of ACE or other funding. Our theatre manager started maternity leave as the pandemic hit and as a result we missed all opportunities for additional arts council support. We have been offering reduced rates, preferential box office splits and extended promo support to aid the recovery from the past year and a half. Your help will enable us to continue bringing fantastic stories to your local theatre. 50% of your donation will go to the Alma Theatre, and 50% to our inhouse company, Schoolhouse Productions.
