'All my kids came to Twiddlesworth, lovely little school it was back then. It's like the United Nations now.' Welcome to Tiddlesworth Primary School! Allow politically dubious dinner lady (sorry, 'lunchtime supervisor') Sheila, 'challenging boy' Ty'Quan, the officious Deputy Head and chronically overworked teacher Miss Marshall to take you on an extraordinary journey... Former primary school teacher Vivienne Acheampong gives a comic insight into life in an inner-city school in this one-woman character-led comedy show. Combining verbatim text, stories and real life characters, this show is a bonkers, hilarious and often poignant look into modern primary school life.

Bechdel Testing Edinburgh Fringe festival

This month we're taking time out from holding Bechdel Theatre Festival conversations to Bechdel test some of the many (many, many) shows at the worlds biggest theatre festival in Edinburgh. We've been endorsing Bechdel test passing shows with stickers. Keep your eye out if you're looking at a wall of posters and want to choose something with women at the forefront to break up the overwhelming maleness of most of the festival scene. If you see this logo you can be sure that women are being represented.
