★★★★★ “A horror classic in the making” Starburst Magazine

Amelia, Poppy and Lauren are wild camping in the Northumberland forest. As the woods darken around them and tensions flare, a watchful presence takes hold over the camp.

A perfect boiling pot of paranoia, superstition and adolescent insecurity ensues that hangs on a chilling question: who is watching who?

With female, queer and neurodivergent perspectives centre stage, Birdwatching is a folk horror about the female experience that doesn’t look away.

Please note there will be a post-show Q&A starting approximately 10 minutes after the performance and lasting around 20 minutes.
