Cock And Bull Story, by Richard Crowe & Richard Zajdlic
Kitcsh Theatre Cafe, Leith Festival, 9 – 13 June 2009
Brunton Theatre, Musselburgh, September 2009
Travis, an up-and-coming amateur boxer is on the verge of the big time. Jacko is his coach and best friend. As they prepare for the fight that will take them from nowhere to the somewhere of unlimited booze and women, the homophobic Jacko discovers something that threatens to destroy their friendship.
In this new production directed by Liam Rudden, the world of Rocky collides with the raw energy of Shameless in a two-hander that never pulls its punches.

★★★★★ “Landing a final emotional punch, Cock and Bull Story is an emotionally hard-hitting play.” – It’s On It’s Gone
★★★★★ “… oozes testosterone and sexual double standards… hair-raisingly choreographed fight sequences. A fascinating piece of theatre that thrills and engages from start to end.” – Edinburgh Evening News
