Something has taken root in this town. A recluse, a disappearance, a mysterious folk song. And then there's you, Meles — a podcaster with a dying mother and a stalling career — about to stumble into something unfathomable. Something that could change everything. But is it your story to tell? A folk tale about folk tales, the art of letting go, and the ethics of true crime, Badgers is a shape-shifting, mercurial new show from the team behind Outlier. Written by Malaika Kegode with music by Jakabol — 'tremendous poetic drama' ★★★★ The Guardian / 'exuberant, convivial energy' ★★★★ The Stage. Developed on Complicité's Mudlarks International Residency. Badgers is part of the Traverse's £1 Ticket Project. Image: Tom Denbigh
