In a first for Feral, we staged an immersive theatre dining experience like no other at The Beefy Boys restaurant in Hereford as a celebration of Valentine’s Day 2024.
Inspired by local stories of romance from the Old Cattle Market, Love Bites was an Arts Council funded talent development project which was written by participants of Writing Room Extra, a writing group delivered at The Courtyard Hereford by Lisle Turner from Open Sky Theatre.
Amortentia Potion, by Mary E Davies, has fun looking at the ways Hereford women used to look for love.

There's always one. A keyboard warrior with nothing better to do than make an unnecessary boarish comment. Casting pearls before swine, obviously. 🤣.

Pure cringe. If the food is as hammy as the acting they’d be eating the whole pig.

Bit of a porcine comment, innit? Swinish or wot? 🤣🐷🤣
