Mark Thomas returns to the Tricycle Theatre with his true story of how Britain’s biggest arms manufacturer came to spy on a comedian.

Written and performed by Thomas, Cuckooed tells of an activist and close friend of the award-winning comedian who 10 years ago was exposed as a spy. Now he wants to find him and has some questions to ask.

A personal tale of hubris, planes, demos and undercover deceit, Cuckooed sees Thomas try to unearth what it means to be spied on by a corporation under the sanction of the state.

Directed by Emma Callender, the show marks Thomas’ return to the Tricycle Theatre following his performances in Bravo Figaro!, The Manifesto and Extreme Rambling (Walking the Wall).
