SKANK: Created by Clementine Bogg-Hargroves

SKANK is makes it's LIVERPOOL Debut at the JOHN FOSTER THEATRE which is Opposite the EVERYMAN Theatre in Liverpool! - after its sell out 4 night Run in January 2020 in Manchester - 

FRIDAY HAS SOLD OUT!!!!

Clementine Bogg-Hargroves arrives with her critically acclaimed debut play SKANK for a run before the Brighton and Edinburgh Festivals! - one reviewer said 'Bogg-Horgroves delivers a tour-de-force performance' (no9)' - which is true, but who is HORGROVES????? - Hello, I am Clems Producer and this is the skinny...

The Producer (me) calls SKANK 'A Tesco Value, Northern Fleabag' which looks great in this opening blurb... Meet Kate. She’s a Skank. 

Kate could be a successful writer, if she could just concentrate. Instead, her head is filled with recycling concerns, genius ways to ensnare Sexy Gary, and the persistent fear that her internal organs are against her.Clementine Bogg-Hargroves reveals the witty, dark and often filthy thoughts of an ambitious twenty-something grappling with her uncertain future. How can someone so confident be so terrified? If you like Comedy, drama, and twenty something witty angst, step inside the world of SKANK -  the performance has many 4 out 5 star reviews which look good on the poster.

'A constantly funny play.' - British Theatre Guide
'skank is laugh-out-loud funny.' - She-Wolf
'Wickedly funny, yet touching.' **** The Play's The Thing
Produced by Mark Ashmore and Future Artists, Directed by Zoe Barnes

What is Skank?- 
The World is in the middle of an Existential Crisis, Climate Emergency, , Brexit, Cornavirus!... which is exactly what you don’t want to be reminded of on a cold wet spring evening in a theatre above a pub!
 
- so WE ARE EXACTLY NOT THAT! - Hey there. I’m the shows’ producer by the way.. stick with us, let me give you 3 exacting sentences about the performance of SKANK!- Have a cheeky scroll down...It’s a comedy drama... but it’s also got some postmodern bits in it – so it's abit clever - you know, a bit like Fleabag clever, so if you like Fleabag and are a fan of comedians like Luisa 'What would Beyonce do? Omielan – then SKANK is right up your street, pull up a chocolate rolo yogurt, flip the lid and laugh out loud!

Let me introduce you to Kate, who is the main character in SKANK,she was created by Clementine Bogg-Hargroves, and having met Clem and having seen her perform as Kate, there are definitely some similarities – they are both the same age (20 something), are both striving for a life that may or may not exist, and both appear onstage during the show! 

Kate likes to improv as Clem and Clem likes to act like Kate..... confused? Don't worry, you got this, come to the show to find out!So what's the story, well it’s 55 minutes long, so just about long enough to not check your phone for a message from say 'Sexy Gary', that's whose pants Kate's trying to get into. Kate’s got a vague ambition to be an award garlanded writer, an ambition that doesn’t seem to translate into any actual hard-work or action.

But to be fair, between recycling this bean can and obsessing over her inevitable early death, she’s no room left to concentrate on winning the Nobel Prize for literature – Gen Z in a nutshell.
