‘Mel your body is yours, you can f**k who you want!’

Melissa is having a bit of a crisis. This bold, funny, and honest hour explores the reasons why; starting with her mum, God, and sex.

Told by a first-generation British Ghanaian woman on the hunt for an orgasm, So Many Reasons was a one-woman show that prods the ideas of femininity and womanhood inherited by daughters. Exploring cultural and generational shifts, religion, and sexuality, this brave new show asked what happens when we realise mums don’t always know best.
