A solo piece exploring the personal experiences of growing up as one of the 'feral underclass' in relation to today's 'Austerity Britain'. Fleas, cheap clothes, thrifty bread, cold baths, and debauched disadvantaged dancing will be investigated as I chart the drive for survival and fitting in. Stories and songs about how to get by and make do will be shared whilst I attempt to overcome the shame of ?lack' and celebrate our spirit of community and hope. Dangerously hungry, indulged, oversexed, asexual, too many children, impotent, too independent, a burden...the poor female is seen as the cause of her own poverty, an emblem of the undeserving, and a force for self-help.
