LADY BITS - a verbatim musical

From hours of interviews with women from across the globe, vignettes and songs were put together to create this heartfelt mini musical. LADY BITS is an honest and sometimes painful exploration about what it means to be a woman today.

"Lady Bits is a cathartic celebration of what it means to be a woman and its verbatim style helps highlight that womanhood is in many ways different for everyone but that there’s also so much that we share. I laughed and cried and left feeling more connected to all the women in my life. This is the kind of show that reminds us what can happen when we lift each other up."
- Caroline Smith, 26

“I was incredibly impressed with the standard and quality of the writing, both lyrically and compositionally. The storytelling was excellent which is no easy task when a work is dependent on verbatim accounts. These are universal stories of mothers, daughters, sisters, wives and partners. Let their voices be heard.”

- Hilary Brooks, Composer and renowned Music Director

“It is an eye opening piece that approaches a sensitive subject in a respectful and original way. I found that its non-bias approach meant that different people could find a way into the piece in different ways, meaning that it started conversations on the subject rather than trying to impose opinions on it.”

- Jack Heydon, 21

“Lady bits is a well crafted, original piece simplistic yet stylish. The verbatim style piece broached sensitive subjects in a respectful and refreshing way that really took the audience on an emotional journey. An incredibly touching and eye opening piece that left me full of thought and wanting more. “

- Dylan Evans, 25
