ADA ā °µĶųTV SCREENS wraps its fall season with āFleabagā, the hilarious, award-winning, one-woman show that inspired the hit BBC/Netflix series starring Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
āFleabagā airs at 7 p.m. Tuesday, December 3, at the Raymond J. Estep Multimedia Center in the Bill S. Cole University Center. The recorded live production is open to the public and tickets are $10 for community members. Tickets for °µĶųTV students are $5.
Written and performed by Phoebe Waller-Bridge (āKilling Eveā), āFleabagā is a rip-roaring look at āsome sort of womanā living her āsort of life.ā Fleabag may seem oversexed, emotionally unfiltered and self-obsessed, but thatās just the tip of the iceberg. With family and friendships under strain and a guinea pig cafĆ© struggling to keep afloat, Fleabag suddenly finds herself with nothing to lose.
Playing to sold-out audiences in New York and London, the New Yorker deems āFleabagā a ālegitimately hilarious show.ā Other reviewers agree that Phoebe Waller-Bridge is āfunny, vibrant and blunt as a hammerheadā (New York Magazine), and her storytelling is āquirky and originalā (Guardian).
The runtime for āFleabagā is 67 minutes. The BBFCA has given the production a rating of 15 ā higher than āPG-13ā but not an āRā rating ā as the play contains strong language, sexual references, and references to sexual harassment.
NT Live is the National Theatreās groundbreaking project to broadcast the best of British theatre to cinemas around the world. °µĶųTV SCREENS will open its spring season with āThe Tragedy of King Richard the Secondā on January 17, 2020.
