The review was written after a performance at the Drill Hall in London. Bardsley writes that "Siren have always been mesmerised by the idea of time travel, they move their performances through both past and future and around a central theme of DANGER: the danger of lesbian sexuality (and of any kind of 'otherness') to straight society."

The comments were after a performance of the play ‘Now Wash Your Hands Please’. Two comments were from males who felt that it was important for men to see the play.

Custard Club is the Brighton Fringe Bursary Winner 2026 and winner of the Pebble Trust Young People's Bursary. It was performed at the Lantern Theatre from 24 to 28 May. Custard Club tells the story of Nancy, a young woman whose fraught search for queer community pushes her to the most sensible solution she can muster: summoning four women from across the twentieth century to her kitchen table for an unforgettable evening of passive aggression, genuine aggression, impromptu drag numbers and custard fights. At times, Custard Club is a poignant look at queer costuming, coding and community-building, at others, a campy, raucous spectacle.

The discussion focused on fighting back against a war-hungry, racist, patriarchal and misogynistic system, building community as self-defence, and existing to create, rest, look after one another, play, dance, love, and find joy within each other.

The shoestring budget and DIY ethos meant the LGBTQI+ club night Housewife's Choice was a cheap date - decor created from the begged, borrowed and nicked. Painted in our flat at Wilbury Road by Queenie and Michele the bedsheets were transformed to keep the 50s Housewife ideal alive.
