REVIEWS
“With this show, the tiny space Upstairs at Errol’s café and bar (around 35 seats) bristles with very contemporary ideas and insights – and with great imagination in presenting them […] Director Bridget Balodis keeps the diverse elements ticking along, including the use of projected video diaries and text messages – aided there by video artist Isobel Taylor Rogers, Raya Slavin’s sound and Amelia Lever-Davidson’s precise and selective lighting.”
– Stage Whispers
“Angry Sexx is less an argument for any specific kind of feminism than an affective, supra-feminism. It mocks the nay-saying ironies of generation X, the impulse to disengage, and instead proposes a furious affirmation. Whatever your feminism, whether it’s hypersexualised, boundary-pushing nastiness or mainstream second-wave feminism, says Perks, do it angry.”
-Daily review
“Breaking down the gender politics that fill contemporary society, the show is bold and dark, and poignantly blurs the line between truth and science fiction to make a lasting statement.”
-The Music
“This space between anger and consequences makes for great theatre.”
