Review: SUGAR COAT, Southwark Playhouse
Sugar Coat is a piece of gig theatre, telling a story of growing up, trauma, and sex through pop punk music. A kind of rock concert meets musical, it’s performed by an all female and non-binary band, playing and singing live for the duration of the show. From the very beginning, this doesn’t feel like a traditional theatre experience: the audience are whooping and clapping along, and it’s clear that everyone both onstage and off is having a great time.

Anonymous Is A Woman strikes again with a disquieting site-specific show about consent and its withdrawal. Inspired by the Aziz Ansari scandal where a woman referred to as 'Grace' accused the comedian of pressuring her into sex while he stood by the opinion that it was merely a bad date, Greyscale is an exploration of blurred lines and personal stance.
