Comedian and speaker Josefine Stork invites audiences into a bold and playful evening about the female body. Her show, Cycle Revolution, tackles what many of us were never taught about our own cycles, hormones and bodies, and how much of that knowledge has been lost while we were on the pill.
Drawing on her own experience of coming off hormonal contraception and discovering her cycle for the first time, Stork looks at the four phases of the cycle, the hormones behind them, and the pressure around sex, shame and contraception. Her central argument is that society is built around a male 24-hour rhythm, and that organising life around the menstrual cycle could mean fewer burned-out women. The evening is framed as a revolution without losers, one that starts with ourselves and our own bodies, and is aimed at daughters, mothers, friends and partners alike.
