I’ve plucked my eyebrows, straightened my hair and whacked some red lipstick on: I’m ready for my date. He arrives. Eyes like the ocean, hair buoyant in the summer breeze, and the unerring confidence of a man who’s as proficient in the kitchen as he is in the bedroom. I look down. You’ve got to be kidding me. A Winkle-picker. A. Mother. Fucking. Winkle. Picker.
Bored of the never-ending pressure on women to look good, yet faced with a daily barrage of poor footwear choices from the patriarchy, Plunge have decided to take matters into their own hands and put a stop to this hypocrisy.
Plunge’s track is a call to arms on this horrific oppression: ‘Shallow’ is what critics are calling the 9th Wave of Feminism. Now the shoe’s on the other foot...
Written, directed and performed by comedy trio Plunge.
