Featuring original monologues about why dating men of all star signs doesn’t work and covering highs and lows of dating within Edinburgh’s queer community, Jordy’s funny, filthy and heart-wrenching stories about each zodiac sign will look back at a decade of sex and everything that didn’t go right. Spoiler alert: all these men are awful. You’ll be dancing along to twelve iconic pop tracks accompanying each heartbreak, as Jordy and her ex-lovers teach you that self-love really is the foundation of it all. With additional support from Naomi Head and Tash McPhillips, Jordy brings this preview show to the Netherbow Theatre at the Scottish Storytelling Centre June 29th for Pride Month.
