Tragic Queens
August 2017 at Mainline Theatre + official selection at Centaur Theatre’s Wildside Festival in January 2018
Part frenetic, part melancholic, follow the capricious and passionate power games of three time-travellers stuck in a perpetual state of girlhood. Alienating and deeply intimate, Tragic Queens is a relentless maelstrom of eras, emotions and mirrors exploring sad girl culture & the relationship between women and power.
