The Beauty of Being Herd

September 14th, 7pm – 8.30pm

A one woman show with original songs, comedy and heartfelt sharing about a woman who’s decided to live as a sheep. The show is regularly described as both ‘moving’ and ‘bonkers ‘.

After years of trying to fit in, Hannah’s waving goodbye to life as she knows it to live instead as a sheep.

The Beauty of Being Herd is Ruth Berkoff’s debut show – a funny, tender, quirky tale with original songs, clowning and even a rave.

A show for anyone who’s ever felt like an outsider.
