Crocodilian Oblivion

Written by Izzy Christie, Directed by Izzy Christie & Ella Ford

This play has everything! A revenge plot, family betrayal and … talking crocodiles? 

'Crocodilian Oblivion' follows Peggy Sue and her friend Marta as they return to her family’s crocodile farm to expose its animal cruelty to the world. On the way they are foiled by her malevolent brother Damon and The Conductor who are intent on torturing the Crocodilian Citizens to maximise their profits. Will the crocodiles survive the play? It’s up to Peggy Sue and Marta to save them! 


After last year’s “enigmatic” and “wondrously compelling” (Smyth, Theatreview) feminist eco-thriller Strays, Izzy Christie and Ella Ford have returned to BATS Theatre for a dazzling new project sure to make jaws drop.
