Red Pearl Clown Festival Rosa Garland: Primal Bog

Primal Bog is the gorgeously gross new piece from Rosa Garland, creator of cult hit Trash Salad.

In Primal Bog, Garland plunges headfirst into the muck in an hour of clowning, slime, and unfiltered desire that’s been hailed as “filthy and fearless” (The Telegraph) and “a masterclass in comedy” (Metro).

Part psychosexual fever-dream, part Jackass stunt, Primal Bog is “disgusting, daring and unlike anything else” (Fest) and a “thrilling showcase of comic fearlessness” (Chortle) that leaves audiences howling, gagging, and cheering in equal measure.

Already showered with acclaim, the show was featured in The New York Times’ 7 Buzziest Shows of the Fringe as well as being nominated for NextUp’s Biggest Award in Comedy and the Comedians’ Choice Award for Best Show. Rosa Garland is, in the words of Metro, a “supernova talent” and Primal Bog is her boldest, slimiest work yet.

Come into the bog; the mud’s just fine.

Suggested age: For adults (18+)
