Produktbeschreibung

Being a woman is blood and guts
It's intestine
Fuck florals and ballgowns
It's balls
It's livers and kidneys and puke and mucus
Ripping and tearing and shredding
Red stain on linen bedding
It's shedding

Jaz is in her second year at drama school. Jaz is tired of performing. Hence her conundrum. But when she stumbles across a piece of forgotten history - her life is changed forever...

What does it mean to find yourself? Especially when it seems the world you live in is diametrically set against you doing just that?

Set against the sprawling backdrop of urban London across centuries, curious is a frank, funny and moving excavation of the lives of two actresses who are young, Black, queer and trying to find out who they are. It is written and performed by Jasmine Lee-Jones, the winner of Evening Standard Award 2019 and Critics' Circle Theatre Award for Most Promising Playwright for her play seven methods of killing kylie jenner.
