The Knicker Lady™ (PH)

7.30pm

Presented by Vicarage Productions

This unique and hilarious one woman show romps through the history of underwear with a tempo and hilarity that leaves audiences, both male and female, spellbound and eager for more!

Surrounded by old suitcases, boxes and hat stands, Rosemary Hawthorne delves through 250 years of bloomers, briefs and bustles and presents the myriad of colourful characters that wore them. The audience is transported back to the muslin clad elegance of Jane Austen’s England, the corset bound nineteenth century, the suffragettes and daring darlings of the roaring twenties. With charismatic vivacity The Knicker Lady™ scrutinises the liberty bodice, school knickers, the mighty Y-front and much more...

Organised by Agender with all profits in aid of the charity Knickers 4 Africa. Donations of new knickers and nearly new bras welcome.

Tickets: £12.50
