Badgers is a new folk play written by Malaika Kegode with music by Jakabol, blending spoken word and live music. The play explores the art of letting go and the ethics of true crime, following Meles, a podcaster with a dying mother and a stalling career, who stumbles into something unfathomable involving a recluse, a disappearance, and a mysterious folk song. These are limited preview performances ahead of the show's national debut at Edinburgh Fringe.
