Doll's Head Theatre to Bring MIGHT NEVER HAPPEN to the King's Head

After their sold-out run of 'The Forbidden' at The Canvas Cafe in 2015, Doll's Eye Theatre return with "Might Never Happen" at the King's Head Theatre (115 Upper Street, London, N1 1QN), with press night slated for Monday 2nd May 2016.

It might never happen. You might be fine. That comment, that look, that whistle, it might not be directed at you. You might have made a mistake. You slip your keys between your knuckles anyway. It might never happen..... But it might.

'Might Never Happen' explores the social phenomenon of street harassment. The play has been written and devised by the company, drawing on research conducted at the Child and Woman Abuse Studies Unit by Dr Fiona Vera-Gray into the lived experience of men's stranger intrusions on women in public space, and Dr. Maria Garner into men's perspectives on gender relations and their experiences of navigating cultures of 'masculinity' and being men.

The play explores various aspects and perspectives of street harassment from the ridiculous to the terrifying. With a cast of four female and two male actors we hope to focus on how both genders perceive street harassment in our society.

Doll's Eye Theatre is an all female collective, set up by Artistic Di- rector Amy Ewbank and actor/writers Catherine Deevy, Vicki Welles, Kirsty Osmon, Danielle Nott and producer Caley Powell. The company was set up to challenge audience perception of gender.

Cast: Ashley Sean Cook, Catherine Deevy, Paul Matania, Danielle Nott, Kirsty Osmon, and Vicki Welles
