Slippery When Wet



Slippery When Wet

Slippery When Wet follows the journey of an aspiring actor who, having returned to her hometown to work in a supermarket, is forced to face her complicated relationship with her hometown when she falls madly in love with a colleague. We follow this bawdy young woman through drunken nights, embarrassing encounters and ‘bad feminism’, as she debates abandoning her theatrical city dreams for Love (with a capital L).

Description
“I didn’t expect Love to show up at my dreary new job. Clean-up in aisle four!” Slippery When Wet, written and performed by Leanne Devlin (Ireland), and directed by Emma Copland (UK). Told through eclectic story-telling theatre, this one-woman show is a bawdy, heart-breaking and hilarious exploration of youthful passions and societal cynicism. Described after a rehearsed reading as ‘cheeky and irreverent’, and with a ‘gorgeously wry sense of humour throughout’, Slippery When Wet is a reminder that you can only really jump into love when you have both your feet firmly planted on the ground.
