Our second episode already! Artistic Director, Adam Hemming, chats to Daniella Finch, Beth Wilson and Ted Marriott from 5 Pigeons Pecking a Bin Bag. We discuss intrusive thoughts, what makes people funny and social media management in advance of their run of Piss and Bile at the Space (22nd-26th March, livestream on 24th March and on demand access for two weeks after that). ADULT LANGUAGE WARNING - there are a few f-bombs dropped, not loads but enough to mention.

Have you ever found yourself experiencing that feeling of being stuck? Of feeling listless and unanchored, peppered with flashes of total existential dread? Are you constantly questioning whether you can ever be successful, fulfilled, financially stable or even happy?

Same.

PISS AND BILE is a hilarious show about being sad in your 20s. It follows two women navigating the monotony of working in the service industry and the frustrating customers they encounter. Their co-dependent friendship is pushed to the limit as they struggle to keep a lid on the boiling rage that bubbles under the surface.  Woman 1 applies for a beep boop business job. She doesn’t get it. Woman 2 secretly applies for it too. She gets it. The tension is high and the competition is on. Can their friendship survive in a world that fosters apathy, complacency and cruelty?

Come on, it’ll be a laugh!

‘Bertolt Brecht once said: ‘the service industry is a fickle beast’ and if we said what we really want, we’d lose our dumb little jobs. So sometimes we have inside thoughts which are different from our outside words.’

‘I tend to wake up late, resenting all my life choices that have led me to being here, right now, with you. In this bistro equivalent of a tiny fucking bog.’
