GET OFF
Join dedicated hedonist and self-proclaimed hot-mess Katy Baird as she fearlessly unveils her journey into the pursuit of pleasure.
The human brain registers all pleasures in a similar way – whether a delicious meal, a sexual thrill, a recreational substance, or those little hearts on Instagram… but just how good does all this consumption truly make us feel?
With trademark humour and honesty, Katy offers us a raw and unfiltered glimpse into the human need for distraction, exploring the depths of our desires and questioning the autonomy we have in choosing where we seek it.
Brace yourself for an evening that challenges, captivates and ultimately brings us all closer together.
‘Messy, anarchic and very funny’ ★★★★ The Stage

‘You can just imagine the Arts Council symposium. It would be called “What If Live Art Falls Into The Wrong Hands” and the main topic of discussion would be Katy Baird’ The Scotsman
