This is bold, unapologetic, activist theatre that demands to be seen. Come and show up for the voices so often silenced—stand in solidarity, be moved, get angry. 

I was like wot! Abuse has shaped my whole life, and no-one ever talks about it. 

Listen. 

Silence. 

And around this time the NSPCC published the report about the 11 million... 

and then Jimmy Savile and up to a thousand victims... 

and everyone agrees it's awful... 

but you're still the downer at the dinner party if you talk about yourself as part of that narrative. 
 
In a tipi in the middle of Somerset, when she was a new mum and there were only the wilds, Viv Gordon remembers. Through her characteristic humour and warmth, Viv leads us through the act of remembering and what happened next. A powerhouse of a show combining installation, live performance and collective acts of resistance - this is a vital call to arms. 
 
A powerful solo theatre show performed by Viv Gordon, featuring beautiful set design. Bold, raw, and deeply moving – where theatre meets activism in an unforgettable way.
