She faked posh. They faked everything else. 

Transferring from Edinburgh and hailed as ★★★★★ “The best show at this year’s Fringe” (The National), this satirical tragicomedy follows an ambitious young woman willing to use any means necessary to succeed in the art world. Even if it means taking on a new identity. Enter Florence.  

Florence is everything she isn’t; charismatic, confident and well connected. Florence infiltrates an elite social circle and uses her new connections to secure a job at a prestigious gallery. But behind the veneer of blue-chip art and prime real estate lies a den of wheeler dealers. 

That’s fine. Florence can handle it. But what happens if the person underneath can’t? 

Beneath the comedy and social satire, this play asks: how effective is a mask when you’re really trying to hide from yourself? What begins as a clever act of reinvention descends into a psychological struggle as the identity she has created begins to take on a will of its own. Could it be that what she thought was an act is really just a part of herself, stripped of restraint? 

And once that part of her is out, it refuses to go back in.
