Pigeon Syndrome

Edinburgh 2026

When a hapless husband accidentally steps on a bee that his wife has been trying to save, it seems that their marriage really has hit rock bottom. But when he inadvertently gets back into her good books by saving an injured pigeon that's flown into the window, he finally believes he's found a way to restore their former passion for each other. An absurdist comedy, with a dash of dark humour and questionable puppetry, that explores the fundamentals of relationships.
