Get your glitter, it’s time to go.

When Seamus came out as bi, he thought he’d finally worked everything out. But when he starts experimenting with makeup and falling in love, he finds himself propelled into a messy journey of discovery about what it means to be a man who sometimes wants to be both masculine and pretty. With a heart-warming core, and a soundtrack of pop anthems, Peacock is an uplifting, hilarious and authentic look at the taboo surrounding men wearing makeup.

A brand new show by Alma favourites Greedy Pig Theatre Company - one of the most exciting and dynamic theatre companies in the South West.

Greedy Pig Theatre Company is run by Bath Spa University Alumni Douglas Murdoch, Lex Kaby and Holly Jefferies. 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!

Content Warnings: mentions of suicide, discussions of homophobia & biphobia, strong language

Praise for other work by Greedy Pig:

'Into this pervasive atmosphere of latent indifference arrives Be, like a shining sunbeam that comes lancing in.'
- Bristol 24/7, 2022. (full review)

★★★★½ ‘Be is a beautifully crafted piece of theatre, handling a complicated and polarising topic in an emotionally intelligent and respectful way’
- Confessions of a Five Foot Two Actress, 2022. (full review)

★★★★ ½ 'This is a finely executed show that hits all the beats of a crime thriller in all the right places, and examines the pressing topics of toxic masculinity and male violence towards women with the allegorical flare of a truly great piece of science-fiction.'
 - Confessions of a Five Foot Two Actress, 2021. (full review)

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.
