SynopsisPowerful monologues with exciting new disabled women protagonists, from leading disabled writer/director Vici Wreford-Sinnott., Funny Peculiar Zsa Zsa, Raquelle, Blanche and Cuba are in quarantine - four disabled women locked down, locked in, shut up and shouted down. While the rest of the nation is in meltdown, it takes a lot to phase this quartet. The new terrain is worrying and frustrating but these women are prepared - perhaps they have waited for a moment like this their whole lives. In a sequence of four original, cross-cutting, witty and wise monologues, broadcasting from their own homes during quarantine, these women are myth-busters giving their all to expose the lie of vulnerability. 'Acted with verve, wittily scripted, both funny and hard-hitting' The Stage Siege Siege is a short, filmed character monologue exploring what it means to be disabled and 'looked at'. It's from a longer-term piece of work and centres on the character of Mim (rhymes with quim). Mim is a funny, edgy radical, trying to live a subversive lifestyle right slap bang in the middle of the radar, with a shame-free approach to the disabled female body, who can't get a gig. What's it gonna take to change that? "Chock-full of witty and cleverly explored disability politics and feminist issues." Disability Arts online
