Take a photo to win Drive Your Plow tickets

19 Jan 2023

“We have a view of the world, but animals have a sense of the world, do you see?”

Have you seen our Drive Your Plow... billboards around Bristol? 

We’re so excited that Complicité’s stunning production of Olga Tokarczuk’s Nobel Prize-winning Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead has opened at Bristol Old Vic. 

Part eco-thriller, part detective story, it’s already prompting an intense reaction in audiences with its approach to animal rights, what it means to be human, and our interaction and impact on nature.

We’d now like to invite you to share your view of the relationship between animals and humans at this moment in time and be in with a chance to see the show – through photography!

How to take part

1. Take a photo (or multiple photos) in response to the quote “We have a view of the world, but animals have a sense of the world, do you see?” No fancy equipment necessary. You can use your phone camera, and point and shoot whatever inspires you.

2. Post it to your social media account, using the hashtag #driveyourplowcomp and tag (dependent on your chosen platform):
Instagram @bristololdvic1766
Twitter @bristololdvic
Facebook @bristololdvic

Or email it to entries@bristololdvic.org.uk

3. Enter by midnight on 29 January 2023
