Angry Snatch: A Reclamation Job in 15 Rounds
Created and performed by Frankie Walker in collaboration with Meg Fenwick and Cai Tomos.
-THIS PERFORMANCE WILL TAKE PLACE AT MERLIN'S BRIDGE BOXING CLUB-
“As the dawn slow-dawns, it dawns on me, the only way out of this house is to dismantle the whole block. Brick by brick, painstaking, consuming labour from roof to foundation, learning to salvage bolts and bits and domestic things.”
A provocative and captivating story of reclamation and recovery from intimate partner abuse, based on lived experience. Physical-theatre, spoken word and dance, performed in a boxing ring, interrogating the traumatic effects of controlling and coercive behaviour as we move through one woman’s healing journey. What is the legacy of abuse and who do we become as a result of it?
"MADE ME LAUGH, MADE ME CRY, MADE MY HEART SWELL AND MY MUSCLES FLEX" Audience Member.
Supported by Arts Council of Wales/Wales Arts International through the Wales in Edinburgh Fund and by Aberystwyth Arts Centre.
Content Warning: Although this piece of work tackles coercive control and domestic abuse you will not see any depictions of violence.
