SQUIDGE
By Tiggy Bayley
ABOUT THE SHOW
Daisy, a reluctant teaching assistant, is assigned a young Irish traveller to help with his reading. Amid phone calls with her grieving mother, a sexy plumber and whale noises, she finds hope in an unlikely friendship.
“Squidge” is a one-woman show by award-winning screenwriter and actress Tiggy Bayley, about those left behind by our education system and finding love in a world determined to hate.
This production is in Co-production with Ray Productions. A West Yorkshire based production and PR company that supports new work and artists within the creative industries.

⭑⭑⭑⭑½ “A one-woman show with a lot of heart, a pin-drop performance and writing that tears you apart and stitches you up anew” – A Young(ish) Perspective
“Bayley’s energy throughout is incredible. We sit captivated in her palm waiting with bated breath at her every word. The pace is considered, balanced, thankfully not rushing through more tender moments and drawing out the mundane. The ingenious staging, simple yet effective is also worth note, proving that not having bells and whistles isn’t preventative to good, if not great theatre.” – JKSees
