Phoebe Waller-Bridge in National Theatre Live: Fleabag (2019)
Fleabag is a rip-roaring look at some sort of woman living her sort of life. She may seem oversexed, emotionally unfiltered, and self-obsessed, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. With family and friendships under strain and a guinea pig café struggling to keep afloat, Fleabag suddenly finds herself with nothing to lose.

    Original and authentic, but sometimes she just appears detached and narcissistic. Which is fine, but to hold her up as a woke modern woman is I think not appropriate
    You have to commend Phoebe-Waller Bridge. This is a totally original concept and she is very brave to come out with something so vulnerable and also to do it entirely on her own in a one-woman show. I totally understand how there is a subsection of young females who will find it very comforting that Fleabag shares their challenges in love and loss and coming of age as a woman in the modern world. I did cringe sometimes though as I think she toes the line between being woke and simply being crass very finely and sometimes crosses it. It might appear woke for a woman to be talking about sex and bodily functions etc in such an open way but sometimes it felt like it was just being crude for the sake of it, for the shock factor, and i'm not sure how much it does for moving forward the narrative. It's like lame shows about guys jacking off and farting and doing disgusting things is refreshing to men because it makes us feel more normal and less alone. There is a place for that. But such shows wouldn't be being held up as being woke and important like fleabag often has been.
