Hi Friends!

It's Bethan - aka, one of the reception people at Deli who is super helpful :')

I'm creating a very silly and surreal new one-person show about motherhood even though I am not a mother.

Here is the info below. The work-in-progress is 15th and 16th December at Deli and it's pay what you can - so even if times are hard pay a couple of quid- I want to fill the room with friendly faces :)

“Remember - your life is over when you become a parent. You’ll never achieve your dreams or have fun again. Especially if you’re a mum. Xoxo” (said some intrusive thoughts… and society)

Procreate pokes fun at the motherhood penalty, pesky prescriptive gender roles and expectations that pile on the pressure when you bang out a kid.

This is the debut one woman show from Bethan Screen… and probably the last one because tbh, combining parenthood and performing sounds too hard :(

Full of of clowning, a sprinkle of audience interaction, practicing my strict telling off voice with voiceover, entertaining the wee ones with puppetry and classic anxious list-making to create a surreal, and silly show about contemplating procreating. I think.. I’ve not made a baby or finished this show yet- lol.
