UNSTITCHING
THURSDAY 20th & FRIDAY 21st July 2023 | 4.30PM
£10 Full Price / £5 Concession / £3 ‘No Questions’
An existential comedy about yarn, chaos and Eurovision.
Unstitching is 50 min solo show and a unique comedy that explores the struggle of one woman to express herself authentically in front of others. Through spoken-word, cynical stand-up, lip-syncing and dancing to Eurovision songs, she tries to find her voice on stage. However, as the show progresses, her facade starts to unravel and she becomes overwhelmed by her inability to organize her own thoughts, leading to hilarious and poignant moments.
