ArtCOP Scotland: Nic Green with Laura Bradshaw & Rosana Cade - Cock and Bull

Co-commissioned by Creative Carbon Scotland and The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, renowned performance artist Nic Green, with Laura Bradshaw and Rosana Cade, will present Cock and Bull in response to issues of climate change during ArtCOP Scotland.

Halfway through the COP21 proceedings, three females convene to perform their own, alternative conference of parties. Exploring power, voice, agency and sustainability they use the most heard phrases from governmental rhetoric, to dismantle and redress dominant paradigms of power and politics.

Cock and Bull is a transforming choreography of words and a passionate speech of the body, underpinned with the real-time energy of political dissatisfaction and Tory tongue-speak.

Work under the artistic direction of Nic Green crosses and combines dance, theatre, sonics and site-specific performance practice. Her work has been commissioned and presented nationally and internationally to critical acclaim, receiving sell-out audiences in the Barbican’s main house, the Arches Award for Theatre Directors, ‘Best Production’ at Dublin Fringe Festival and a Herald Angel at the Edinburgh Fringe. Cock and Bull was originally conceived with fellow Glasgow-based performance makers Laura Bradshaw and Rosana Cade in response to the 2015 General election. She is thrilled to re-present the work as part of ArtCOP Scotland.
