Before the television series conquered the world, Fleabag was a sixty-minute one-woman show performed at the Edinburgh Fringe. Now, with Phoebe Waller-Bridge's blessing, a new performer takes on the role in this authorised touring production that returns the show to its raw, intimate theatrical roots.
Actress Madeline Brewer delivers a tour-de-force performance as the unnamed narrator — a dry-witted, grief-stricken, sexually chaotic young woman running a guinea pig-themed café in London and trying to navigate life after an unthinkable loss.
Stripped of TV production values and performed just feet from the audience in our Studio, the show's emotional gut-punches land even harder. You'll laugh until your sides ache, and then the rug will be pulled from under you in the most devastating way.
This production contains very strong language, sexual content, and references to bereavement. Not suitable for under-16s.
