Good people do terrible things...

Renovations at the Lyon household. Bruce, the figurehead of the family, weighed down by his impressive mane, has chosen a savannah theme for their new kitchen. He is surrounded by women.

Bruce struggles to cope with modern living, and knows that his time is limited since James, his stronger, more handsome neighbour, has been peering through the windows admiring the family and the mod cons. Such is the life of a lion.

The Pride stays true to Side Pony Productions’ signature style - black comedy at its darkest - borrowing from the drama of a lion’s life, mapping their social patterns onto human characters dressed like lions.

This surreal comedy, created by the cast with director Zoe Pepper (Heart of Gold, The Manic Pony, Scarecrow, Motor City Blues), looks at betrayal and our readiness to forgive; even in the face of gross moral misconduct.
