About this ebook
An unflinching play from exciting new writer and performer, Izzy Tennyson.
Grotty is a dark and savage exploration of the London lesbian scene. A couple of little sad old basements that drip with sweat and piss, with second-hand noise pulsating from some gay-boy night upstairs. The women sit there in their uniformed black… and they are looking at you. They are not nice girls. But Grotty is not a nice story.
The piece was premiered by Damsel Productions at The Bunker, London, in May 2018.
