READING: Wine Bitch by Amy Morcom

(*not a real cabaret, Bitch can’t sing)

This is an anti-cabaret about friendship, self-loathing and the heartbreak you cause yourself when you conflate your place in someone else’s life.

Bitch and Babe are best friends. From thirteen, they knew this would be a friendship that would survive distance, eclipse careers and surpass romance. A foundational soul-level connection. Unsinkable.

Bitch moves away, Babe begins adulting. Bitch becomes destructive, Babe becomes distant. As they grapple with life, they clamber for each other whilst inadvertently pushing each other away until the friendship is fractured beyond repair.

They both have their version of what happened. And they’re both trying to put on a cabaret to tell you their side of the story.

This play aims to illustrate the true love and total heartbreak of female friendships, spotlighting stories about women’s platonic connections and how they can elevate us powerfully, or damage us deeply.
