Event Info

Drawing on the roles and personas ascribed to women throughout their lives, the show explores the absurdities and injustices conferred upon women’s bodies, serving up a surprising and provocative experience laced with laughter and the moving messiness of life.

Not afraid to delve deep, the unspeakable may be spoken.

The performance will include a curtain-raiser from local Groovin Well groups, taking our spirits to the sky, and showcasing the talent abounding in the local community.
