About the show
"When you tell people you live in Cumbria, they expect you to live in some grand manor house on the side of the lake… I live above a kebab shop in Penrith - with me Nana"
​
A one-woman comedy drama written and performed by Hannah Sowerby.
All Jodie wants to do is kiss a woman, but the only one available in Penrith seems to be her friend’s Mam…19-year-old Jodie hasn’t gone to Uni like most of her friends, but has instead been forced into taking a job shelf stacking by her very sweary Nana.
Join Jodie as she attends therapy with her shit, but hot, counsellor; bumps into everyone she’s ever met in the local supermarket and is repeatedly invited to a very strange man’s static caravan…
