Unsolicited

A work in progress

Mandy, Jade, Daisy, and Susan have been on the boat all their lives, sailing the sea of misogyny: battling sexist waves, dodging patriarchal icebergs, and trying not to get hit by the “mansplaining” tidal wave. But now, Susan has had enough. She wants off this ship, Is there a lifeboat? A secret island of equality? Can Susan find a way out? Join the ride as these four women bicker, sing, and laugh their way through the daily grind of being women in a world that’s still convinced they can’t steer the ship. It’s a high-energy, laugh-out-loud exploration of resilience, ridiculousness, and the eternal question: How do we survive the storm?

Will it be lairy? Yes. Will it be lady-like? Hell no! Girls, bring your fellas, husbands, partners, mates, brothers, sons, dads—everyone you can think of—as we get to grips with this giant, humongous wave of misogyny. 

Unsolicited was first performed in 2022, and since then we’ve updated and revised, and added in a whole bunch of new songs, in preparation for getting Unsolicited out onto the road.
