Pussy Liberty - A One Act Play by Valerie Isaiah Sadoh
A fearless look at the diverse world of millennials & feminism.
Blaire, an early twenty-something woman, struggles with the pain of a past trauma and loses herself in the fight for equality. Meanwhile her best friend Halle is stuck in a relationship defined by passé gender roles, which increasingly affects her friendship with Blaire.
In a melodic yet naturalist style the two storylines of young women trying to find their way in the world intertwine, as with sarcasm and wit Pussy Liberty shows that even in the toughest of times there is something to laugh about.
Pussy Liberty is the debut professional play of Valerie Isaiah Sadoh and takes a fearless look at the diverse world of millennials and feminism, providing a strong contemporary voice. It was first performed at The Bread & Roses Theatre in 2017, after the producing company She’s Diverse won The Bread & Roses Emerging Companies Award 2017.
