Flogging a Dead Horse

Gavin Glover & Faulty Optic
8pm, Thursday 5th May 2011 @ Tobacco Factory Theatre

Amongst the ink blots, intercoms, coffee rings and pizza, there’s a little doorway down to the deepest, darkest ocean, where the seabed sludge has a similar chemistry to the chemistry of the human brain. Flogging a Dead Horse is a show which ponders those moments when the people around you are present, but just not quite there.


For over twenty years, Faulty Optic have been inspiring new audiences with their radical reinvention of puppetry. Their shows, which mix puppetry with animation, film and music, transport you to a dislocated reality, laced with dark, dark humour.

Following performances at London’s International Mime Festival earlier this year, we’re delighted that they’re opening Mayfest 2011 at the Tobacco Factory Theatre.
