Five artists working in theatre, dance, sound and light design collaboratively devised this multidisciplinary piece. Three women unravel their girlhoods in a dreamlike and nostalgic narrative. The Gentle Art of Punishment is for anyone who has ever had a crush on their therapist – or thinks that Drew Barrymore is under-appreciated in her dramatic roles.
