    What narratives are imprinted on female bodies? 
    What scars does state violence leave on societies?

    The Latinx duo Marisol Spensieri & Héctor Manchego come together for the first time to explore abortion accessibility in contemporary societies with a documentary style, mixing live performance and video-making techniques.
    "Our flesh and..." (working title) is an urgent response to the recent changes in abortion constitutional law in Western countries. Women's experiences from various countries, cultures, and times merge in one voice to interrogate how institutional and patriarchal regulations impact female bodies.

    Concept by Marisol Spensieri
    Devised & performed by Héctor Manchego and Marisol Spensieri

    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.
