Wind in tall trees. White sky. Rain soon. Hooves on earth. Twigs. Snap. Wait. Listen.
A new experiment in performance from Katie Mitchell, Nina Segal and Melanie Wilson. Using only sound and no words, a quartet of performers and Foley artists evoke the lives of two animals – a cow and a deer.
Cow | Deer is an invitation to enter the more-than-human world.
Co-created by Katie Mitchell (Bluets, Anatomy of a Suicide), Nina Segal (Shooting Hedda Gabler, Big Guns) and Melanie Wilson (Oracle Song, Opera for the Unknown Woman) in a major international co-production with the National Theatre of Greece
Initial development supported by the University of Oxford.
