A story of determination, resilience and community, The Bush tells the true story of a group of women who campaigned to save a patch of land from development in Australia.
Written and performed as a solo piece by Alice Mary Cooper, The Bush is an hour with both comedic and emotional moments, while also being a show that allows the audience time to pause for thought. Through Cooper’s incredible storytelling, she is able to draw the audience into the story and keep them enthralled from start to finish. The incredibly intimate venue (Beneath at The Pleasance) allows the piece to be peaceful yet moving at the same time and makes the audience feel like they are part of the story.
