Workshy

‘Chaotic and uncompromising’ Audience member

It’s hard work on the frontline

Workshy is about work. Some people work to earn money, others to feel fulfilled. Some people don’t work at all.

Drawing on her own experiences at the frontline of the customer service industry, Katy uses a funny, uncompromising honesty to create a powerful portrayal of the relationship between labour, class and aspiration.
