Back by popular demand, Lucy McCormick’s trawl through the annals of history in search of strong female role models is shamelessly funny, up-front in every way and deliciously vulgar. The joke, a stinging one, is that she can only find four women because, as McCormick makes clear, it’s still a man’s world and one in which they control whose stories do and do not make it into the history books. McCormick’s unholy don’t-give-a-fuck attitude is very refreshing in an evening in which seriousness sits hand in hand with anarchy.
One of the biggest hits of the last Edinburgh Fringe, ‘irreverent’ doesn’t quite cover it. A riotous mix of music, dancing and theatre – this time Lucy is in search of feminist heroes from history and is rightfully pissed off that there are so few.
Lucy is crawling through the annals of history in this enthusiastically humiliating exploration of power and purpose. Joined by her friends-with-benefits, Lucy is back with her trademark concoction of dance, song, absurdist art and minor breakdowns. Age Restriction: 18+
