Black Liver

Ruth is from Blackpool. Keith is from Liverpool.

And thus, they became Black Liver.

Born during lockdown 2020, when performance artist Ruth and cult comedian Keith had nothing better to do. What started as some silly songs on YouTube led to commissions for museums, libraries, and children’s charities.

They are now a touring theatre company with two shows under their belt, numerous tours all over the country and a dedicated live following. Black Liver loves touring interesting community spaces and theatres; bringing live performance to everyone – especially those that don’t get the chance to experience it as they are restricted financially or geographically.

The following applies to both our touring show, ‘Suport Your Local Library! A Gothic/Pub Rock Opera, and ‘Miss Nobodies’.

For our performance space we would need approx. 3 metres squared minimum.

We are totally self-sufficient, we arrive with a PA, Amps, and lighting.

However, if we’re in a large theatre then we will need two mics, input for two electric guitars and input for the iPad that

provides the musical backing tracks.

We can provide a COVID-19 risk assessment on request.

1 hour plus Interval (with a competition for the audience to play) can be added at 30 minutes if required.

Age 12+

No swearing or crude content therefore younger children can watch but it’s not aimed at children.

No flashing lights. No need for black out.

We can do relaxed performances on request.
