Welcome to the Ladies Room.
Two women, one diagnosis and approximately 7 different bathrooms: Flushed
follows a changing time in the lives of inseparable sisters, Jen and Marnie. When
Marnie is diagnosed with Premature Ovarian Insufficiency, her life is altered and the
relationship between the two girls is tested. Flushed is a play about the everlasting
bond that is made within the cubicle walls; where friendships are formed, secrets
are shared and girls poo.
Theatre Unlocked is a new theatre company comprised of graduates from the
University of Manchester and the University of Salford.As a company, we feel
that the issues surrounding Premature Ovarian Insufficiency are not as publicly
recognised as they should be. Surprisingly, there is only one charity in the UK
that deals with this issue: the Daisy Network. We are pleased to be in communication
with this charity and are appreciative of their support; we plan to fundraise for them
throughout the run.
RAPID RESPONSE NIGHT
As well as the play performance, this night will also feature a Rapid Response Night. Writers will come to the production in the first two nights, and write a 10 minute piece of theatre in response to the play. These will be performed after the performance and will help fundraise for the Daisy Network.
