contains several references to toxic masculinity, one reference to domestic violence and one reference to child abuse
Sian loves men. But she has a toxic relationship with all her male role models.
The men she has admired throughout her life have done nothing but let her down. But why did she idolise them in the first place? And what do you do when your role models let you down?
An exploration of masculinity, gender and identity from a self-identifying butch woman who has an unhealthy obsession with The Smiths.
Join award winning comedian Sian Davies (“A cross between Peter Kay and Zoe Lyons” ~ Beyond the Joke) as she develops her next hour of comedy.
Sian is working class and queer, and fiercely proud of belonging to both communities.
Winner of Edinburgh Fringe Comedy Awards Panel Prize for Best in Class in 2022.
