Because their chicks leave the nest even before they can fly, the expression ‘raven mother’ has for centuries been synonymous with uncaring or bad motherhood.

In this 2019 Edinburgh ‘Fringe First’ winner from Germany, three superb female circus artist/mothers emerge from their own nests, to reveal some uncomfortable thoughts about child-rearing. They ask ‘is there a raven inside of me?’

Fresh, truthful, poignant, laced with humorous insight and told through personal experience and world class aerial and acrobatic skills, Raven shines a spotlight on dilemmas faced by every working mother. Pitch perfect in combining language and movement, the result is both thoughtful and thrilling circus-theatre.

There will be a BSL interpreted performance on Wed 22 Jan, with Jeni Draper.
