The Formidable Lizzie Boone

What do you get when you combine a wedding ring, burlesque and Pacman?

Well, if you’re Lizzie Boone, you might get therapy…

From
the multi-award winning Selina Helliwell, ‘The Formidable Lizzie Boone’
will pull you into Lizzie’s world for a night of drama, healing and
dark humour.

Centred
around a therapist’s office, this one-woman show explores the
intricacies of humanity through a woman who loves vodka with lemonade
and a cat called Lionel.

With lively voice-overs and a burlesque dance sequence, this play is bursting with soul and humanity.

Trigger Warning: Contains references to mental health/breakdowns and sexual assault.

So join Lizzie Boone this October for a night of drama, dark comedy and maybe a nipple tassel or two…

“the play really gripped – a burlesque performance mid-show was also compelling”

London Theatre 1

“It’s ultimately a story of a woman pushed to the brink and finding herself again on her own terms, and as a whole it does an excellent job of this.”
