Ladylogue - Camden Fringe 2015

The Thelmas return to the Tristan Bates this summer with 6 new one-woman shorts, written by some of the UK's finest emerging, female playwrights including; Lucy Foster, Madeline Gould, Serena Haywood, Mina Maisuria, Sarah Milton and Maria Yarjah.

Hilarious or heart-warming, often agonizing and at times a little dark, these tales reveal the inner lives of women dealing with whatever the world throws at them, by all means necessary. Are they mistresses of their own fates or merely making the best of a bad situation? Be they hopeful or hopeless, these ladies will open up a portion of their world, and will never give up without a fight!

In praise of Ladylogue! (2014):


★★★★ ‘…an energetic bunch of talented women… I’ll be watching you again’ - remotegoatstage

★★★★ ’...laughing so loud I would have been embarrassed if everyone else wasn’t also barking, snorting and shrieking’ - femalearts

★★★★’…hilarious, challenging, and heartbreaking… executed with grace, variety, and interest.' – Grumpygaycritic

★★★‘…giggles even continued as the set changed for the final act’ -Everything Theatre

★★★ 'An all-female cast and crew making theatre that people like - maybe that's the best kind of feminism.' - View from the Gods

The Thelmas are an exciting new theatre company, dedicated to supporting and promoting rising female talent. The gender imbalance in British theatre has never seemed more incongruous and so, much like the characters they help develop, The Thelmas are taking matters into their own hands. They are passionate about seeing more work commissioned written by women, and they strive to make work that reflects this.
