A woman stands alone in a pit of ashes. What happens next is a live resurrection. In this one-woman musical, stand-up meets manifesto meets performance art.

Our new musical will be at BEAM2023 woohoo! But what IS it!?
Can a couple conclusively prove they haven’t argued all year?
Since 1104, Great Dunmow has hosted the Flitch Trials, an otherwise lost tradition. In the trials, married couples convince a mock court that they haven’t argued for one year and one day. Upon satisfying the jury, they win a flitch of bacon. FLITCH follows 6 married couples, alongside costumed townsfolk performing roles of the court. In this world where pop-meets-medieval and Kurt Weill meets Lily Allen, we’ll give couples permission to argue, provincial traditions permission to evolve, and communities the opportunity to celebrate their absurd histories.
