GIRLS
following sell-out shows at New diorama Theatre, Incoming Festival and winning the VAULT Festival ‘Show of the Week’ Award 2019.
Raucous, tender and unapologetic. Someone else can tidy up.
Spanning decades of lived experience, GIRLS is a whole-hearted dance of what it felt like to be a girl and a reclamation of all things loved, lost, desired and fought for.
Before they became your sisters, nanas, mothers, aunties, friends and lovers - who were they?
A diverse, inter-generational ensemble of women unearth the girls they were and shine a light on the women they have become.
“…a celebration and also an interrogation ...messy, unfinished, both hesitant and sure of itself. It’s part of its appeal.”
