Sugar Bits: Feminist Trash

  • Comedy
  • Entertainment

The cult hit of 2025 returns for two weeks only.

Knock over your trash cans – sketch trio Sugar Bits are back spilling feminism all over the street. Smeared with the socio-political grime of Abbie Chatfield and the idiocy of Aunty Donna, these triple-threats are overflowing with absurd sketches, razor-sharp songs and characters validating the feminist experience.

Directed by Sharnema Nougar (Mel McGlensey is Motorboat and Normal) and Liv Bell (Alf Alpha's Cocktail Hour).
