“Depression and anxiety from hormonal contraceptives may not be the experience of every woman, but that doesn’t mean it’s not the experience of your friend, your daughter or your partner, and of many women out there, who, in reading about this could have their lives changed for the better.” – Holly Grigg-Spall.

Pill is a one-act, autobiographical performance written by Rebecca Phythian, tackling the contraceptive pill as a method of contraception and its mighty list of side effects from a first-hand experience.

Through the use of verbatim scenes and an episodic style, Pill's aim is to start a dialogue about contraception and women's sexual health, specifically but not limited to the different types of contraceptive pill, in order to give our audiences the confidence to ask questions about their sexual health and retrieve the information they may need about contraceptives.
​
6 years of development, research and exploration have gone into this show in order to represent as many women's stories as possible and to further that, the contraceptive Pill has never been spoken about at length in any published piece of theatre so it's safe to say, we can't wait to change that!
After a successful run at this year's Greater Manchester Fringe and FUSE International Festival, along with a 5-star review, this is not a show to be missed!
