Mia and Amber never had their spitting, screaming bitchfight, but would it have been better for everyone if they had? Five years since their friendship fizzled out, Amber appears on Mia's doorstep, wedding dress on and suitcase in hand. Five years on, and can Mia stand up to the abusive best friend she thought was consigned to the past? Bitchfight is a play about toxicity in friendships: the sort of toxicity comprising years of slights and comments which, in isolation, sound mad to label as abuse, but still leave deep scars that cannot be healed.

About the show

Bitchfight is a new drama from Queen Mary Theatre Company, performed at Theatre 2. Mia and Amber never had their spitting, screaming confrontation, but would it have been better for everyone if they had? Five years after their friendship fizzled out, Amber appears on Mia's doorstep in a wedding dress and with a suitcase in hand. The play is about toxicity in friendships — the kind that comprises years of slights and comments which, in isolation, sound mad to label as abuse, but still leave deep scars. The show runs for 45 minutes and is suitable for audiences aged 14 and over.

Why see this show?

Bitchfight is sharp and honest about a form of abuse that rarely gets a stage — the slow accumulation of small cruelties between friends. Tense, tightly written, and genuinely uncomfortable in the best way.
