More Information

Presented by Michelle Hall and State of Play as part of FRINGE WORLD Festival 2022. The Dirty Mother is an act of civil disobedience. It’s pulsating electric guitar, exploding pomegranates and massive pink pants. A celebration of friendship and reinvention, The Dirty Mother is a story about reimagining yourself beyond crisis. This intimate, true story takes us into Michelle’s post-natal underworld where a giant midwife triggers a disco-strip-dance and Hugh Grant arrives as history’s most distracted birth partner. Out of the debris of disaster, this mother may seem dirty, but she’s alive and ripe for telling the tale “nice ladies” are not supposed to tell. The Dirty Mother is a birth rite for the 21st century with the gas and air turned up to the max!
