“Who the Fuck are you?”
“I’m the Walrus of Loneliness. Let me in.”
A few years ago in the middle of a shitstorm of life events, single mother, artist and proud Londoner Annie Siddons found herself living in suburbia by accident. This show is a hilarious, brutal and poignant attempt to describe what happened next.
On Monday 14th there will be a free post show Q and A with Annie and members of the company chaired by Amy Perrin from the Marmalade Trust, a Bristol based charity that aims to tackle loneliness "one spoon at a time”. https://marmaladetrust.org/.
Performed by Annie Siddons and Sarah Moore.
With films by Richard DeDomenici.
Directed by Justin Audibert and Nicki Hobday.
Annie Siddons is a Londoner, writer, performer and musician.
Her work is funny, brutal, honest and poignant, embracing the mythic and the mundane, and always has narrative and music at its root and heart.
★★★★★ “Subtle, sincere, riotously funny and endearingly raw.” – Broadway Baby
