Character Flaw
“Symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in girls and those assigned female at birth are often seen as character flaws.” Great.’
Pip is forever arriving late (including on stage), losing things and having lapses of attention where things happen around her. She’s always just written it off as part of her personality, and tried to make light of it, but a late diagnosis of ADHD changes everything.
Character Flaw is a brilliantly written, dazzlingly fast-paced one-woman show that deftly exposes life before and after the diagnosis, and its intersection with queerness.
Hilariously visceral.
