Jobs are on the line.The rules are unspoken, but everyone knows them. Bull is a strained and unsettling examination of workplace bullying, power and survival. As pressure builds, alliances shift and cruelty surfaces, exposing a system where fear thrives and empathy disappears. Sharp, darkly funny and deeply uncomfortable, Bull lays bare the human cost of a working culture shaped by competition, hierarchy and silence. How far will people go to protect themselves? This is Deafinitely Theatre’s second adaptation of a play by Mike Bartlett, following the Off West End Award-winning, critically acclaimed and sold-out production of Contractions in 2017. Bull is presented in the company’s distinctive bilingual style, combining British Sign Language, spoken English and creative captions and is directed by Deafinitely’s award-winning Artistic Director Paula Garfield MBE. “It’s not personal. It’s just business.” creative team writermike bartlett directorpaula garfield tour dates & tickets the rep, birmingham date: Saturday 12th September - Saturday 19th September 2026times: 2:00pm matinees (Thursday and Saturday only) & 7:00pm evening shows buy tickets here!
