Lucy Peach takes a packed audience on an empowering menstrual journey replete with comedy, music, and art.

The show begins with Lucy’s face silhouetted against a projector screen, singing a song about her twelfth year of life. Meanwhile, her husband Richard draws elements relevant to the narrative, which are projected onto a screen in real time to the amusement, entertainment, and education of the audience. Richard’s comedic cartoons continue to accompany Lucy throughout the show.

Lucy – dressed in blood red sequins – regales the audience with the story of her personal entry into womanhood. She talks about being both too much, and not enough. Premenstrual expressions of rage, monthly truth bombs, and hilariously relatable descriptions of the four menstrual phases make appearances, as do tips on how to go with the flow, so to speak.

The specific biological wisdom Lucy shares needs to be more widely dispersed. If you are a period-having person, or if you know one, you need to see this show. It will inspire you to pay closer attention to the timing of certain phases, for the purpose of improved wellbeing.

Lucy Peach’s stunning original music enhances her flawlessly funny performance. The dynamic between Lucy and Richard is sweetly synergistic, and comes with a charming post-ovulation love song.

This non-historical period piece about dreaming, doing, giving, and taking purposely promotes period positivity. This is must-see informative comedy for all humans, which will resonate most with past, present, and future period-havers.
