★★★★★ - Feminist Fringe

"Too Pretty to Punch is a magnificent tapestry of gender expectations; the consequences of not fitting those boxes; and represents the strength of existing in a queer identity that transcends these. "

About the author:

Edalia is a transgender/non-binary spoken word artist, animator and theatre-maker based in Norwich. They trained in classical acting at ALRA in London and in mime and physical theatre at the Ecole Jacques Lecoq in Paris. Their theatre is visually stunning, full of explosive movement and exhilarating video projection, with comedy and a child-like sense of play at the heart of everything they make. This is their second book of poetry, the first being the Super Hamlet 64 Poetry Manual, about videogames and Shakespeare and made to accompany the show of the same name.

Their current shows include Super Hamlet 64, Too Pretty To Punch, and Spectacular Spacebots, a new family show about an autistic robot who goes on space adventures.
