50 minutesSouthsider
School dinner ladies, Barbara and Veronica, are in charge now. They’ve been through thick (custard) and thin (gravy). And now they’re serving up a scrumptious blend of greasy friendship and anarchic delight, with hints of impending peril. If you behave, you’ll be home in time for cocoa and Fray Bentos. It’s Thelma & Louise meets George’s Marvellous Medicine meets a big pile of offal. So feed, learn, and come of age. Lady Bolognese have prepared their specialty. Developed with Above Your Nerve and Soho Theatre Labs. (WIP)
