"Relatable and impactful on so many levels… Everyone needs to see this show!" Audience Member
Turk(ish) is an empowering, autobiographical show by contemporary circus artist Poppy Plowman, combining live music, high skill, humour and intimate storytelling.
Poppy uses tightwire and hair hanging to explore personal struggles of identity and Western beauty standards. Through her story we follow Poppy as she embraces who she is, encouraging and inspiring audience members to do the same and to nurture an anti-oppressive attitude.
Poppy Plowman is a British circus artist with Turkish Cypriot origins. Here Poppy has collaborated with cellist Zara Hudson, combining their passions to create Turk(ish).
