Description

Breaking down? Lost the manual? Book in for this funny (meta)physical dive into how to keep going. Based on a complete strip-down and rebuild of the 1962 Rabbitt model. This 21,000-day service includes a troubleshooting guide and FAQs fielded by experts such as philosophers, physicists, poets and the manufacturers: Mum and Dad. Learn to laugh at built-in obsolescence and override factory settings. Lost your feeler gauge? Find it here. Warning: may contain candour. When life needs a service, rummage under the bonnet with the award-winning Anne Rabbitt – ‘reinventing her work with wonderful results!’ (Fringe Review, 2021).

Anne Rabbitt’s SELF SERVICE is a character-driven (with the solo performer playing multiple “self” personalities) exploration if self-discovery, self-doubt, and self-recovery. So much of the material was relatable, especially to those over the age of 50. While the resolution came quickly, the vulnerability to examine worth in latter years of vocation drew both smiles and familiar empathy. Very much recommend this performamce to those if us who wonder of we’re still good.

This is a delightful and unusual 50 mins in the presence of an engaging, witty and insightful performer. This quirky show is thoroughly enjoyable, funny and, ultimately, thought provoking.

I loved this. A light, sad, uplifting reflection on (almost) 60 years well spent. Anne is energetic with a brutal honesty that you can’t help but engage with. Who can fail to love the accordion accompaniment to the drug song.

Anne Rabbitt’s Self Service is well developed and crafted. Her mild-mannered delivery is refreshing and she uses a variety of vocal and physical elements in her storytelling. There is quality in this original idea and performance, go and experience it!
