Have you got a wild side? Batty has, she dreams of running barefoot, wild swimming, of talking trees, strange animals and the scent of the seasons turning. In fact, she’s starting to wonder if she might be a witch...

Join Batty and her companion Wildthing for a raucous, tender and joyfully unruly journey into ageing, nature and the wildness within us. Through storytelling, gossip, humour and moments of exquisite tenderness, BATTY! explores the menopause and the changing experience of being a middle-aged woman.

Inspired by witches, wild swimming and the natural world, the show celebrates women who refuse to fit neatly into society’s expectations – inviting anyone who has ever felt a little different to embrace their own feral side. Come and explore the wildness, as opposed to madness, of women.


This performance will be followed by a post-show Q&A with writer/performer Victoria Firth and performer Kathryn Hanke.
