About this show
Andalucia, 1936. The poet Lorca is shot. A shallow grave. Unmarked. Through the eyes of a travelling theatre company Bull / Fight searches for the lost poet's beauty among the dusty roads and white-washed villages of Spain, as the country spirals into civil war and political violence sweeps the stage... A breathless and intimate journey to the dark roots of tragedy from Edinburgh's newest ensemble. Previous work: 'Unequivocally magnetic... entrances and enthrals' * (EdFringeReview.com for Antigone, sell-out show 2024/5). 'Perfect... made me sing in my heart' * (FringeReview.com for Lipsync, Fringe First, Lustrum Award).

The Mythography Collective returns to the Fringe after being singled out by many as a company for the future. Ed Robson in his role at the McRobert Arts Centre is well known for supporting and helping young companies…
All are very good indeed, but it’s really the ensemble that is the star, as the piece features a great deal of chorus, choreography, clapping and co-ordinated movement. Simple props and costumes are used effectively.
— All Edinburgh Theatre (4 out of 5 stars)
Bull/Fight, by the Edinburgh-based Mythography Collective with Macrobert Arts Centre, is an ambitious story involving enormous emotions, told within a tiny physical space.
