About this show
GANNET / 'gæ-net: 1) Noun: a strange-looking seabird. 2) Slang: a greedy person. 3) A dark comedy about a bird climbing the corporate ladder, created by two unemployable fools, Peggy Pollard and Daisy Day. Inspired by the trials and tribulations of getting a job as a Gen Z; from two Soho Labs alumni Pollard and Day. Featuring one performer (Day) playing 18 characters – and the occasional object. "Sorry, I've Got No Head meets Succession" (Audience review). "Charmingly chaotic... GANNET both whets the comedy appetite and leaves you hungry for more" (AYoungishPerspective.co.uk).
