Top Girls at The Cockpit

Caryl Churchill’s ’Top Girls’ interrogates issues raised by second wave feminism in the era of Thatcher, Reagan and a free market economy.

How do you become a ‘Top Girl’? What must you sacrifice? How do you reconcile domesticity and ambition, parenthood and self -realisation?

The graduating 3rd year students in Cloud 9 Theatre Company at Regent’s University, London have reimagined some aspects of this important play for a 21st century audience and an internationalcast.

We have explored the personal, political and feminist challenges facing women in 2024.
