BADASS GRAMMAR 
A Pole/Guitar Composition in Exploded View

---

BADASS GRAMMAR is a theatrical collaboration between a pole dancer and a guitarist, a composition in exploded view. With a mischievous agenda, the performance invites in the mucky subjects of shame, power & privilege. And takes them dancing.

Peering in at the nuts and bolts, the muscle and bone. We draw on the invisible histories of our disciplines, spinning art & language to build a new one, like the back of a live album from another universe.

From award-winning theatre-maker & guitarist Keir Cooper & writer, theatre-maker &
Miss Pole Dance UK finalist Rose Biggin. Featuring a bespoke performance
from Penny Arcade.

Made & Performed by Rose & Keir
Lighting : Ben Wallace
Original music by Keir Cooper
Except Coda by Eleanor Sikorski
Ula performed by Penny Arcade
Rae performed by Patricia Rodriguez


Developed & Supported by
Arts Council England, The Yard Theatre,
The Bike Shed Theatre, Hall For Cornwall, JosyRose.
