Bristol creatives Mia Macleod and Daisy Kennedy return to the stage with SCRAPS, which will be at the Wardrobe Theatre at the end of March.
Scraps is a semi-autobiographical piece of theatre combining dance, lipsync, clowning in this comedy satire.
The show explores the class divide in within the creative world, poking fun at the everyday struggles of Austerity-Britain™ and follows the course of two artists who just want to make work that matters.
Mia and Daisy say: “We have different class backgrounds and when creating a show set now, during a cost of living crisis, we realised it was something we couldn’t just jump over. By doing that we dismiss a huge chunk of our lives and identities, but it’s not as simple as working class or middle class and we wanted to pick apart that conversation within our work. The characters in SCRAPS are dramatised versions of ourselves; we have interrogated our own identities and magnified the expectations that may be put onto us dependent on our class bracket.”
