A new, surreal comedy musical about grabbing pussy. In a world where women are touched daily in places they didn’t even know they had, outcast Maisy has never been objectified. Bless her. Join her on her quest to be fondled at The Space 11-16 July 2017.
Explore a world where reality and fiction are blurred in an intoxicated dreamscape. It will be weird. It will be hilarious. And there will be songs such as, No One Will Let Me Blow Them, I Can Carry Heavy Objects Long Distances Without Needing a Rest and Seem Like A Corpse. There might even be a comedy dance routine or two. One thing is for sure: nobody will leave untouched!
Grab ‘Em is a serio-comic response to the world’s reaction to Trump’s “grab ‘em by the pussy” which highlighted the mass normalisation of sexual harassment. We explore cat calling and bum slapping with a funky beat, we’ll show you ‘grab hands’ not ‘jazz hands,’ and of course we’ll grab you by the pussy. After all, ‘you asked for it.’ Didn’t you?
First performed in the Old Red Lion in February Grab ‘Em By The Pussy, written by Caroline Buckley, directed by Bence Kalo and featuring music by Josh Wells, was developed into a full-length show for The Space’s Summer Season
Grab ‘Em is part of a double bill, tickets also gain you entry to The Trail of Le Singe by the Heretical Historians: A dark comic farce about a shipwrecked monkey mistaken for a French spy.
