Frigid, performed by Rosa Bowden, is an hilariously bang-on comedy about the world of Irish puberty.
Niamh O’Reilly is still a ‘fridget’ – she’s never been kissed – and at 14, she’d want to hurry up. Tonight at the local teenage disco, her friends are on a mission to change that – whether she wants to or not. Set in Dublin in 2007, Niamh takes you on her journey through the innocence and discovery and fun – and mortification and terror of Irish adolescence.
Fresh off a successful run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2023 and winner of Bewley’s Little Gem Award at the Dublin Fringe Festival 2022, Frigid is a coming of age comedy about frenemies, first times and figuring it out.
Written and performed by Rosa Bowden with live DJ Ciarán Gallagher and directed by Hildegard Ryan.
