Schrödinger's Lesbians at The Glitch

It’s the 6th century BCE: Sappho’s back, and she’s single.

“If a tree falls in a forest and no one hears it, does it make a sound? If two lesbians f*ck and no one records it, did it happen? Sorry let me rephrase that: if two women fall in love but none of the men write about it, did it happen?”
But it’s not only the men. Because on an island called Lesbos, Sappho is writing...

Structured around Sappho's fragments, Schrödinger's Lesbians is a joyful, irreverent new play about love, lesbians, and coping with a history that's written you out of it. Authored by Libby Boyd, this is Themis Theatre’s second play following their debut show, The Dissent (**** The Stage), and takes a deepdive into the highs and lows of queer female friendships while asking that eternal question: ‘can you ever just be friends with someone you’re into?’ 

Schrödinger's Lesbians has been programmed by VAULT Creative Arts as part of their inaugural season at The Glitch, Waterloo.
