Stegosaurus - VAULT Festival

The Greek actress is bringing the powerful one-woman play to London’s VAULT Festival from 27 February to 4 March.

Critically acclaimed as “completely spellbinding” (Broadway Baby), Elpida Stathatou’s Stegosaurus plunges audiences into a world of exposed bones, black coffee, cigarettes and self-
loathing.

Stathatou was highly praised at the 2017 Edinburgh Fringe for her “unrelenting and heartfelt performance” (Fringe Guru) in a show that was described as a “powerful drama” in The Sunday Times and a “mordant monologue” in The Stage.

Stegosaurus gives a searing insight into mental illness, and the eating disorders that ruin so many lives. It focuses on the experiences of a divorced woman of 30 whose existence slides between bulimic binging, anorexic starvation, drug misuse, emotional abuse and rough sex. Yet it contains hope, even humour.
