BATSHIT

This is a moving requiem for Leah’s grandmother Gwen, who was incarcerated for seeking independence in 1960s Australia. Created by Leah Shelton and directed by Olivier award-winning Ursula Martinez, this one-woman tour-de-force tears apart the labels used to control and undermine women through razor-sharp wit, raw storytelling, and unflinching performance.

Winner, Scotsman Fringe First & Mental Health Foundation Fringe Awards at Edinburgh Fringe 2024.

All performances are captioned for D/deaf audiences.
