hame. teeth. CLUB.
by Kari Hall
Morgan Shields lives for Saturday nights at Widburn Club.
Fuelled by Dragon Soop, bravado and recklessness, she is thrilled to be going nowhere fast: work, pres, club, repeat. But after experiencing a sexual assault, Morgan is forced to confront the chaos she has been laughing off: fractured friendships, the limits of loyalty and the emptiness that remains when you are believed, but still left standing alone.
Visceral, darkly funny and painfully alive, hame. teeth. CLUB. places a working-class Scottish young woman at the centre of her own story: messy, contradictory, defiant and impossible to ignore.
Written with an electric Scottish voice and a sharp ear for the rituals of small-town nights out, hame. teeth. CLUB. is a fierce solo play about consent, accountability, friendship, class, community responsibility and the fragile work of surviving what comes after.
hame. teeth. CLUB. is particularly suited to:
- Performers looking for a bold, emotionally demanding solo show
