Fleabag
Hilarious and hurtful.
Created by Phoebe Waller-Bridge
A caustic, grief-stricken character study delivered in direct address, where savage comedy masks deep loneliness and the search for meaning amid loss.
A portrait into the mind of a dry-witted, sexual, angry, porn-watching, grief-riddled woman, trying to make sense of the world. As she hurls herself headlong at modern living, Fleabag is thrown roughly up against the walls of contemporary London, with all its frenetic energy, late nights, and bright lights.
