“Leah and Sophie have been together, here, for a long time. They are happy here. But there’s a problem. There’s a fucking massive problem and soon they’re going to have to talk about it”.

LoOk-At-Me | Cockpit Theatre | 10-12 Nov
Another offering from the lovely Voila Europe! Festival, and this one is the work of London based Greek theatre company Monomas. The show explores “issues around gender, bodies, freedom and human existence in an attempt to destroy the stereotypes about what women and men should look like,” and sees its central character, a woman working herself into a frenzy, trapped by social convention and descending into existential breakdown.
