A truly northern fuck you to the southern elite.
Two lasses from across the North™ of England take on the stereotypes they are constantly reduced to (with a cuppa tea in hand of course).
Southerners, buckle up.
Blending comedy and audience interaction with innovative video design and movement, TALK PROPA radically deconstructs the concept of a ‘generic northern accent’.
A spotlight on the intersection of class, accent and gender prejudice against northern women both on and off stage.
Don’t be mardy - see yah there, pet.
