BOOK NOW

  • Paul is trying to find a job. Snowy is trying to find himself.

    Stuck in their rural hometown somewhere north of London, the pair are far from the future they imagined. They fill their days rolling down hills and drinking beers, wondering how everything stalled so quickly.

    When Snowy discovers a dying cow alone in a field, he convinces Paul to help her, even if that means putting her out of her misery. What follows is a wildly funny spiral of bad ideas, failed mercy missions, chainsaws, and late-night visits to the train tracks.

    Equal parts moving and hilarious, this acclaimed dark comedy about two boys and a cow named Sandy makes its Sydney debut on the one and only Old Fitz stage.
