Direct from Edinburgh Fringe 2023, Alexa Davies reprises her starring role in Martha Watson Allpress’ ★★★★★ mile-a-minute hit.
For Charly, every day is the same: neck some coffee, answer the phone, sell some drugs. The flat she once shared with her ex, Clo, is now the base of her growing business. And she’s fine with that. She’s fine! Charly is fine.
But when a power cut hits her estate and the burner phone stops buzzing she is forced to question exactly how fine she is. Desperate to escape the swell of feeling bubbling beneath the surface, Charly charges head first into a world of knockoff Morrisseys, disapproving mothers, and the ghosts of girlfriends past.
Lady Dealer is the ‘pummelling, poetic and profound’ (The Stage) ★★★★★ play starring Alexa Davies (Dead Pixels, Mamma Mia 2: Here We Go Again), directed by Evening Standard Future Theatre Award winner Emily Aboud (SPLINTERED).
★★★★★ ‘Fast, frenetic and utterly charming’ The List
★★★★ ‘A searing and heartbreaking performance’ The Scotsman
