A Two Woman Hamlet

04/05/2026

A truly beautiful piece of theatre from Deanna Strasse, Playwright and Storyteller.

Coming to BN1 Arts Centre as part of Brighton Fringe...

“Bridget is my pseudonym
My thinly-veiled attempt to make sense-
To add structure-
Dramatic structure-
A beginning, middle, and end-
To a thing that has none”

Part theatre, part spoken word.

"Bridget" looks back on her life and contemplates the messy tapestry of experiences that have led her here. She confronts her struggles with body dysmorphia, creative complacency, parasocial relationships, and the brazen decision to move to the UK following a mental breakdown. A raw and intimate look at self-discovery, identity, and the art of becoming.

Aw, mega thank 3wishes theatre CIC - and yes, the theatre is beautiful and absolutely people should come for the free parking! That's more than a bonus in this economy 😅

Did you miss our very sensible discussion with Rob Jelly of BBC Upload for BBC Essex? If so, tune in tonight (Sat 18 April) at 6pm for a repeat performance!

We were asked about our creative outlets beyond theatre...How many more beautiful blankets could have been crocheted, how many more Totoro cakes made, if we didn't keep playing 23 characters from Hamlet all the time?!?!

If you're not able to listen live, we're on BBC Sounds - link below! And remember to buy your tickets from Lakeside Theatre for next week!!!

Shakespeare's text neglects to mention that Osrica (that's right) is a baddie, but also a bit delulu.

A hit, a very palpable hit

We're on BBC Upload right now, talking about naps, the test card image, crochet and cakes. We might get round to Hamlet at some point 😅
