The OG femme fatale, Euripedes' sorceress-seducer, Jason's golden goose: Medea was the goddess who could have had it all. But, much like dancer, actress and Gaulier-trained clown April Small, things haven't quite worked out in her favour.
A heartfelt and humane swansong to a career that never started, join (famously blood-phobic) April as she tackles the injustices faced by women throughout history - including her own. Expect a journey from the highest peaks of foolery to the deepest depths of tragedy, via two years of development, Zoom meetings and a whole lot of home-made prop crafting.
Passionately performed for all those who have been shut up, shut down or shut out, Bloody Medea!! is a tour-de-force physical comedy for anyone who refuses to go down without a fight... or at least a laugh.

Tobi King Bakare and this theatre deserve a shout-out for such a young, diverse audience. There is so much talk about audiences being full of over 60s and why, why can’t theatres get the crowds in to reflect society in general? Well, I’m happy to say that on a rainy Thursday evening, the theatre was completely full.
