David is gay, disabled and profoundly horny. He can't eat, drink or shower by himself – or wank. Totally inexperienced, he embarks on a sexual and romantic odyssey, armed with a fierce brain, and dick pics that he has to get someone to take.
Can he keep it casual whilst also relying on round-the-clock care? And will he manage the thrill and uncertainty of random hook-ups after a lifetime of knockbacks?
Animal is a hilarious, challenging and heartbreaking play by Jon Bradfield, from a story by Bradfield and Josh Hepple. It won the inaugural Through the Mill Playwriting Prize, was shortlisted for the Papatango Prize, and was first performed at the Hope Mill Theatre, Manchester, and Park Theatre, London, in 2023.
Jon Bradfield co-wrote Above The Stag Theatre’s acclaimed series of adult pantomimes, and wrote Missing Alice for the BBC and The Old Vic’s Queers. Josh Hepple is an activist with severe cerebral palsy, who has worked as a theatre reviewer, an equality trainer and a writer for the Guardian and Huffington Post.
