‘This cubicle, it’s like a confessional. If I tell you all my sins will you buy me a drink?’
Set in the heart of a Shoreditch club, FLUSH unfolds entirely in the women’s bathroom – a space of eyeliner touch-ups, whispered confessions, and fleeting connections. Over the course of one night, stories slip between the cracks of the cubicles: teenage drama, thirty-something fatigue, love, loss, career spirals, sex, motherhood, bad dates, and worse decisions.
Hope has just experienced something she can’t quite name yet. As she hovers between shock and clarity, the bathroom becomes a strange kind of shelter – where strangers offer tampons, stories, and the occasional unsolicited life advice. A fast-moving, ensemble comedy-drama told in fragments and flushes, FLUSH captures the blur of being many things at once: bold, fragile, furious, absurd. An ode to the women who hold your hair back, hype you up, and sometimes just hand you loo roll.
Finalist for the Charlie Hartill Award 2025.FLUSH will be having London previews at the Bitesize Festival before heading to the Pleasance Courtyard at the Edinburgh Fringe.
