A BITTER SHREW and DRAG QUEEN STOLE MY DRESS Return to Melbourne

Covering the past decade of her life, Drag Queen Stole My Dress is the story of a lost self and regained strength. A Bitter Shrew picks up right where Drag Queen Stole My Dress leaves off, and explores the grody, murky waters of modern dating, love and sex.

DRAG QUEEN STOLE MY DRESS

"This one time I got a pre-emptive divorce. And this other time, a drag queen stole my dress. Let me tell about it: This is the story of knowing who you are, forgetting who you are, wondering who the hell you are, and yes that one time a drag queen stole my goddamn dress."

From the theatre company that brought you 2013's award winning fringe hit, Love in the Time of Time Machines, (Official Hangover Selection & Audience Choice Award Winner, FRIGID New York 2013; Best Visual Identity, Montreal Fringe 2013) comes a reprise of this beloved solo show, Drag Queen Stole My Dress. This autobiographical tale from Canada's Gillian English tells the story of love, loss, casino showgirls, Australians and a solitary drag queen with kleptomania.

A BITTER SHREW

In 2010, Gillian English almost married someone she didn't love, just because she was afraid to admit that she had made a mistake. In the six years that followed, making mistakes about love and lust have been the only constants in an otherwise uncertain life. An endless stream of bizarre and ridiculous romantic disappointments have left the celebrated, and award winning storyteller with an hour of true stories that will keep audiences on the edge of their seats and howling with laughter!
After extremely successful seasons at Fringe World, Adelaide Fringe, and the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, this amazing show is back on stage in Melbourne for two nights only!

A Bitter Shrew is an hour of the most ridiculous stories about sex and dating, that couldn't possibly all happen to the same person, but they did, and she's gonna tell you ALL about it.

She has farted herself awake in a stranger's bed, taken a pregnancy test in a food court

bathroom, and watched her 26 year old ex-boyfriend almost die of a heart attack.

All the ingredients to make her. . .
