‘Dana, Ruth and Jess down shots to console the heartbroken, to comfort the anxious and just pass the time. Kicked out from the family home, Jess’s dad, Jim, invades the party with just as much recklessness as the girls. As the night passes and vodka bottles are emptied, Friday night in becomes high drama.’
St. John’s Gender Equality Festival presents a rehearsed reading of ‘The Acid Test’ by Anya Reiss. A sharp comedy by an exciting young female playwright, The Acid Test explores a space where gender expectations; sexuality; female friendships; fatherhood; adult responsibility and self-image collide.
Come and join us at 5pm on Saturday 25th October at 20 St. Giles for the performance followed by an illuminating panel discussion with special guest speakers and the cast.
