Fémage à Trois is a powerful trilogy of independent stories, told by the women central to them as they battle with their demons and the consequences of their situation.
As the trio unfolds, the audience is taken on a moving, beautifully observed, dark and hilarious journey. Charming, confronting, desperately normal; each story illustrates the incredible strength needed to meet life and its challenges head on.
Developed as a dynamic and exciting format last year, Fémage à Trois has been re-imagined for 2017 with new stories and performers. It is a wonderful example of structure and content working together to create a show that’s not to be missed. Directed by Lou-Lou Mason, this years production features:
Safe to Shoot by Polly Churchill. After 25 years, Cathy, a normal middleaged woman, is back in the dating game. Things aren’t going as well as she had hoped, but then she makes a discovery: Cathy has super powers.
Hysteria by Claire Gordon-Webster. Plain, boring HR Manager Bea has stumbled across what she’s been searching for her whole adult life. Now, she prepares herself for the most extreme transformation of all. This dark, subversive piece examines the legacy of abuse and rape culture. The
Best Worst Day of My Life by Victoria Turnbull. Grace’s new life with her little bundle of joy isn’t quite what she expected. From sex pacts to cracked nipples and everything in between, Grace navigates the not-so highs and crashing lows of new motherhood.
Founded by Gemma Harvey and Lou-Lou Mason, Loquitur Theatre is a unique theatre company. A champion of new writing and committed to inclusive, collaborative projects, with women at the centre of the story.
