Stable is a film documenting a performance instigated by Kathleen, where for one night she brought horses into Gloucester Cathedral to walk freely through and explore the architecture of the space.

During the English Civil War, Puritan troops, in an act of political bravado, used the Cathedral to stable horses.

Through use of the uncanny, the film blurs boundaries between fact and fiction, myth and reality, investigating ideas around superstition, rituals and histories. Herbert draws out the apparent uninteresting or unspoken, redefining social, political, historic spatial narratives.

Stable was funded by Arts Council England and Gloucestershire County Council, supported by Gloucester Cathedral, Gloucester City Council.
