Description

Sasha is slowly realising that her period symptoms may not be normal. But what is normal when it comes to periods? We follow her as she navigates living with endometriosis, friendships, sexuality, useless doctors, her self-worth and so many bad rom-coms. The Spilling Cup critiques a culture in which women's health is downplayed, periods are seen as shameful and education is lacking. After a successful run at Assembly Roxy in December The Spilling Cup returns to find the funny, the human and the bizarre side to the ups and downs of this often stigmatised condition.

This was AMAZING. Well written and superb acting. Can’t believe one person can hold the audience like she did. Very well done. Hoping this will continue and will definitely recommend.

A really powerful insight into living with the chronic condition of endometriosis, telling the story over many years, from the age of 13. Amazing acting - she held the audience for an hour without missing a heartbeat. So glad I went to see this show. Thank you

Hannah Mary Taylor’s solo performance is outstanding, so much so that I wondered at times if she was recounting her own experiences. Her communication skills are excellent. There is no actorly-ness in her acting, she simply tells it like it is.
