Unruly

Little Cog Productions in association with ARC Stockton presents

Unruly

Written and Performed by VICI WREFORD-SINNOTT
Directed by BEX BOWSHER

Marina and Suze, a force of post-punk, police-agitating, bollocks-shouting duo were changing the world through the disability rights movement. Best friends from childhood, the pair had a loyal, fiery relationship, but now Marina has lost Suze forever, and the revolution has to stop for a while. Marina reflects on their riotous journey, embodying their world, as she summons a lineage of powerful disabled heroines. 

In order to say goodbye to Suze properly, Marina questions whether it has all been worth it. Acknowledging the personal cost of campaigning, and feeling like she has to query her own role, she carefully unpacks her life and slowly removes the layers of women she was expected to be by others. 

Unruly is written and performed by Vici Wreford-Sinnott alongside award-winning composer and musician Beccy Owen. Bex Bowsher directs this rare piece of disabled women-led theatre with an impassioned call to action. We invite you to celebrate these hidden radicals while considering whether doing nothing to oppose brutal injustice is ever really an option. 

Unruly is a powerful, urgent show about refusing to be invisible in hostile environments and the power of friendship and community to get us through. 

The performance will be followed by a Q+A with members of the creative team.
