Polyamorous queer pirates Anne Bonney and Mary Read earned the title the ‘Hellcats of the Seven Seas’ for their vicious and notorious crimes, but they’re better remembered for fighting with their tits out! And now they’re writing their own sea shanties, becoming legends (go away Blackbeard, Captain Kidd and Calico Jack) and doing some HOT GIRL PIRATE SHIT in Titswingers by Abey Bradbury and Sam Kearney-Edwardes.
This new queer punk gig musical (with added pirates) combines punk rock, stand up, drag cabaret, sea shanty influencers and the vibe of a good old-fashioned bar brawl – what other styles would bring to life a story about ruthless pirates with a taste for anarchy and theatrics?
