Description

Violet's scared walking home. Daisy fights to make the streets safer. And Heather? She's just over it. When women are threatened daily, how do you really make the change – and how do you stop male violence when you can't even see how far its roots go down? Scottish women's theatre company F-Bomb returns following their sell-out Fringe debut (Afterparty, 2021) with a radical new play by award-winning playwright Rachel O'Regan. The Beatles Were a Boyband is an urgent and unapologetically feminine response to misogyny. Bad vibes only.
