BATHSHEBA
By Stephanie Martin
Bathsheba is a through-the-keyhole view of two millennial women making a living as sex workers.
Deftly balancing humour and pathos in its exploration, the play picks apart the controversies around sex work, and articulately communicates the struggle of female sexuality within a patriarchal society.
