About

Figs in Wigs are back (again) – and this time they’ve got their period (dresses).

Wild, irreverent and cosmically comical – welcome to the Figs’ live art feminist ‘adaptation’ of Louisa May Alcott’s classic novel Little Women.

Little Wimmin dismantles the traditional canon to make way for the doomed future of humankind. This absurdist theatre show asks how we think about the past, what’s wrong with the present and what we’re going to do about the future… If there even is one.

Prepare to laugh at the traditions of theatre and poke fun at people’s obsession with ‘the classics’ as the Figs use Little Women as their very own trojan horse – turning it on its head and mutating it into an unrecognisable cartoon catastrophe that talks about climate change, astrology and the infinite nature of the universe.

P.S. Beth dies.
