A theatrical fantasy for a retired railwayman and 55 pressure cookers. 'Cocotte' invites you to his hissing world of gas flames, boiling kettles and airborne potatoes. A close relative of the Heath Robinson school of engineering, this National Theatre debut is French steam-powered theatre at its most explosive. Capacity 200; grandstand seating; performed in French with some translation.
