Carpet Muncher

Jo Morrigan Black • Professional company

45 minutes•George Mackay Brown Library
A solo spoken word drag performance by Jo Morrigan Black celebrating queer resistance. The contemporary folklore of the Mothman is brought to life, using vibrant surrealist costuming to explore themes of queer alienation, metamorphosis, cross-border solidarity and homoerotic hot-hub encounters. This show invites you to face the pest in your closet. Is it hungry for light? More creature than human? Join this intimate, frenzied call to celebrate the unknowable within us all, in an unforgettable revelry of cloth. 'Beautiful, heart-wrenchingly relatable and hilariously funny' ***** (TheReviewsHub.com). Part of the 2025 Culture Ireland Edinburgh Showcase.
