The Terribly Credible Definitely Edible Tale of the Town of Cropshire

“Joyful, biting and deliciously absurd. Cropshire moves political discussions forward in a way that only really bonkers theatre can.”  -Audience Review

“Friends, Romans, countrymen: lend me your sexy little ears of corn…" 

Welcome to Cropshire: a world of welly-wearing farmers, weather reports, and perpetually confused politicians. A nationwide ban on vegetables causes chaos in the community. Luckily, one charismatic Cropshire citizen knows exactly where to point the finger... 

The Terribly Credible Definitely Edible Tale of the Town of Cropshire is an absurdist metatheatrical fable about the rise of right-wing populism. Through slapstick fights, dream ballets and increasingly absurd political speeches, an international ensemble of six clowns and a foley artist tell a haunting tale of a town fragmented by violent political oppression.
