About this event
Adventures In Menstruation!
In this interactive comedy performance lecture, Chella Quint OBE, founder of Period Positive and author of Own Your Period and Be Period Positive, will take you through a whirlwind history of menstrual media, taboos, and advertising history.
Chella invites you to take part in some adventures in menstruating of your own through menstrual activism and craftism, song and dance based on her 5-star Edinburgh Fringe Show and contributions to CBBC Newsround’s “Let’s Talk About Periods Special”.
Come join us for a fun and informative event where we'll dive into the world of menstruation! Everything you wish you’d been taught in school (but probably weren’t!) Get ready to learn, laugh, and embrace the power of periods. It's going to be an event you won't want to miss!
Open to the public, not just patients registered at Frome Medical Practice.
