Hitler ja Blondi on esityksenä muotoutuva ja vaatii herkkyyttä ja heittäytymiskykyä katsojassa. Ei siis kannata odottaa jotain helppoa dialogia tai selkeää alkua, keskikohtaa ja loppua. Välillä roolihenkilöt asettuvat katsojan asemaan ja kerronnassa hypitään asioista toiseen, onneksi selkeässä järjestyksessä, 'laulujen muodossa', jotka heijastetaan seinälle, jopa numeroituna yhdestä kolmeentoista.

The 90's was an incredible decade for music, film and fashion. It was also a time when society in general was less accepting. For anyone who didn't fit the brief of what was once considered 'normal', life was far more challenging than it is now. In 2019 there is still much work to be done, though it must be said that in general terms we have finally come to embrace diversity. We have London Pride, Black History Month and Mental Health Awareness Week. People with physical disabilities, though, still seem to be on the periphery and are all too easily swept under the carpet. Fitting then, that this new play by Matilda Ibini is being performed underground at the Bunker Theatre.

Miami-based artists Fiin and MIICHII have linked up on new single 'Ridge', out 6th December via Ultra.

Lynne Collinson, WomensWork's Creative Director says, “Last Lists of My Mad Mother, ticks all the boxes for the type of play WomensWork wants to explore:  a well written script, meaningful material, and a story told from a woman's point-of-view that features women over the age of 40 – an underserved on-stage demographic. The play takes us on an emotional journey of discovery that's ultimately simple, true, and relevant for anyone who has been a caregiver or watched the decline of a loved one.

Little Miss Burden, coming to The Bunker this December, is a vital tale of growing up with a wheelchair in the '90s - a poignant new coming-of-age story from award-winning playwright and screenwriter Matilda Ibini.
