The Fanny Diaries
Written By Erin McDaid
Have you ever wondered what your fanny would say if she could talk? Would she be pleased and proud of your antics? Or would she give you a stern talking to? ‘The Fanny Diaries’ is an original comedy, following twenty-four-and-a-half-year-old Camilla’s journey as she tackles the trials and tribulations of the hell that we call womanhood. If that isn’t enough, she has to deal with a whirlwind of failed romances and unsatisfactory sexual interactions. And still has to face her upcoming smear test which leads to a diagnosis that could send her spiralling. This is not just your average play about vaginas. It is a funny and light-hearted story told not only by the main character Camilla, but also her troublesome fanny!

A message from the cast
"The Fanny Diaries’ is a play created and written by Erin Mcdaid. The core cast includes Zara Pass, Olivia Burden and Mehmet Sutmen, who are all thrilled to be involved in such a special performance. Our intentions behind this piece are extremely close to our hearts and we hope to spread awareness and provide our audience with a memorable experience, combining comedy with female issues and the emotional turmoil of being diagnosed with Endometriosis. When Erin announced that she was writing this play, the rest of the comedic-minded cast leapt at the chance to perform in something that not only educates others but makes them laugh and smile throughout (hopefully!). They cannot wait to share this piece with the world."
