Kate Smurthwaite: BITCH
What do you do when, after 15 years of comedy, writing, activism and championing human rights, you're still best known as 'that feminazi bitch off the telly'? The Have I Got News For You writer and international award-winning comedian is doing the only thing that's left: Owning It.
"Fun, energetic & full of ideas" John Cleese.
"One of the wittiest gun-slingers I've ever seen on stage" Spectator.
"Proper funny… a polished comedy hour" The Scotsman.
"Clever and inclusive & nuanced… her satanic majesty" Chortle.
A show about the word bitch. Being called it. Thinking about it too much. Looking at dogs. Wondering if we really can reclaim it. You created this monster, don't be surprised when it eats your children.
