UNSOLICITED: AN UNSAFE SPACE FOR STRAIGHT MEN

‘Oi! Men! Yes, You. Straight men. The ship is setting sail and needs you aboard! We can’t guarantee a safe journey, the winds are getting stronger, the waves are swelling, and a storm is brewing on the old sea of misogyny.

This journey is for you but it’s about us, women. It’s about our unsafe spaces, our fears, your unwanted dick pics, approaches, harassment, and your responsibility.  Will it be lairy? Yes. Will it be lady-like? Hell no! Girls bring your fellas, you husbands, partners, mates, brothers, sons, dads as we get to grip with this giant and humongous wave.

This performance has been created and devised by a collective of brilliant female artists from the Northwest.”

Unsolicited was performed at The Royal Court Theatre January 2023 to a sell out audience. It is available for touring in Spring 2024.
