The Guilty Feminist at The London Palladium (Guardian Live)

At London Palladium, London, United Kingdom
On 6th February 2018 7 p.m. - 9:45 p.m.

Description

On 6 February 1918, the British Parliament passed the Representation of the People Act, for the first time giving women the right to vote (provided they were over 30 and married). Now, 100 years later, equality has made huge strides, and yet in this age of Trump and Weinstein, sometimes it seems like very little has changed. We have a huge amount to celebrate, but we aren’t there yet.

And sometimes feminism sounds like just another thing that women need to get better at.

“I’m a feminist, but some days even my life doesn’t pass the Bechdel Test”

On every episode of The Guilty Feminist podcast, comedian Deborah Frances-White and her guests discuss topics "all 21st-century feminists agree on", while confessing their insecurities, hypocrisies and fears that underlie their lofty principles. The podcast has been a huge success with over 20,000,000 downloads since it started less than two years ago. Previous guests have included Sara Pascoe, Jo Brand, Sarah Millican, Jenny Eclair, Gemma Arterton and Phoebe Waller-Bridge.

Now, The Guilty Feminist is joining forces with the Guardian for a very special show at the London Palladium, combining discussion, debate and stand-up comedy to celebrate 100 years of progress, and a look forward to the next 100 years, with wit, optimism, and maybe just a touch of righteous indignation.

Described as “hilarious, irreverent, eternally surprising, classy as hell, genius” (the Guardian), Deborah Frances-White is a stand-up comedian whose BBC Radio 4 series won The Writers Guild Award for best radio comedy.

The full line-up for this very special show will be announced shortly.

All ticket prices include a compulsory £1.50 restoration levy for the Palladium.

Running time: 2 hours 45 minutes, including a 20-minute interval.

Wheelchair users and visitors who require an assistant may bring a companion free of charge. To book a free companion ticket please email guardianlive.events@theguardian.com
