"Offal by name, and awful by nature!"Step into the raucous, bloody world of the Deptford Foreign Cattle Market in late Victorian London.
By day, the "Gut Girls" work twelve-hour shifts elbow-deep in animal entrails.
By night, they are fiercely independent, beer-swilling women who earn more than any other working-class females of their era.
But when an aristocratic "do-gooder" attempts to "improve" them into polite domestic servants, a fierce battle for their autonomy, spirit, and way of life begins.Sarah Daniels' knife-sharp dramatic comedy is a boisterous, funny, and shocking exploration of female solidarity against the crushing expectations of high society.This production is not recommended for those under 12 years.
