Join Katie for a camp, chaotic cabaret about the Pill. And Vampires. When it comes to contraception, things are better than they were – but isn't that a low bar? With musical comedy, poetry, games and sci-fi, your doctor awaits you. Exploring all things hormonal, from the delightful to the unexpectedly dark, this is PhD research as you’ve never seen it before – drawing on interviews, autobiography, archival research and a teenage Twilight obsession. Be prepared for audience participation, bingo, lollipops and country singing.* *Side Effects may include laughter, rage, and an aversion to ketchup. R&D support from the Barbican, Camden People's Theatre and Theatre Deli enabled the development of this piece in addition to the Guildhall Arts and Health Studentship. Most recently performed at CPT and VAULT Festival in 2023.
