Rachel is a theatre-loving, enigmatic, learning-disabled 33 year-old who loves Kylie, heckling her sister, and seeing people falling over.

At the touch of a button she commands the action, each scene brought to life by a skilled cast ready for whatever she asks of them. From bar room brawls to a bourbon biscuit cabaret - get ready, this is Rachel’s Perfect Show.

Perfect Show For Rachel combines physical theatre, live music, family memories, slapstick comedy and fart jokes in a chaotic, moving and triumphant tapestry.

Step into Rachel’s unique, often hilarious world in this critically acclaimed show.

Perfect Show for Rachel was developed with Rachel, to create a show on her own terms. It explores who defines artistic taste, and questions who that currently excludes. Created by Zoo Co Theatre, a multi award-winning company creating theatre that loudly champions access. Zoo Co won the Oxford Samuel Beckett Theatre Trust Award in 2022.

Created in collaboration with Improbable, a pioneering company of improvisers and theatre-makers who have been making ground-breaking work for the past 25 years. Proud winners of Producer of the Year at The Stage Awards 2023.

Perfect Show for Rachel is part of our Handle with Care! season.
