Shitbag

Why is it easier to talk about a bowel disease than mental illness? Darkly comedic and life-affirming, this one-person play reveals the reality of living with chronic mental and physical health conditions. We follow a young genderqueer person through a Crohn's Disease diagnosis, hypo-manic episode, colostomy bag fears, queer sex, group sex, morality, mortality, blood, shit, laughter and tears. Hayley Edwards brings their multi award-winning debut play to Summerhall with the Edinburgh Touring Award after two highly acclaimed, sold-out, extended seasons in Melbourne. Think Fleabag but with more queer shit (literally). ***** (Lilithia.net). **** (Age).
