Bitter Lemons

In the pressurised worlds of football and finance, two women carve their own path.

After the loss of her dad, a goalkeeper prepares for the league final, while an ambitious banker battles her fears of being tokenised to secure a promotion. But as their pitches get closer, worlds collide as life shifts unexpectedly and in parallel. How do you face your biggest challenge yet?

Winner of a Pleasance Edinburgh National Partnership Award and supported by Bristol Old VicBitter Lemons is an explosive debut play tackling the pressures on women’s bodies and the power society holds over them.
