Description

Claire Dowie's stand-up theatre plays are a bold and unapologetic exploration of identity, desire, and the complexities of being human. With a unique voice that is both humorous and provocative, Dowie tackles topics that challenge societal norms and expectations. In plays like Adult Child/Dead Child, Why is John Lennon Wearing a Skirt?, and Death and Dancing, Dowie creates characters that are both relatable and unapologetically themselves. Her writing is a powerful exploration of what it means to be a woman, a lesbian, and an individual who refuses to be defined by societal expectations. With a keen eye for observation and a sharp wit, Dowie's plays are both entertaining and thought-provoking, making her a standout voice in contemporary theatre.
