Memoirs of a Hermaphrodite by Sarah Leaver Productions

Inspired by the writing of 19thcentury French hermaphrodite Adelaide Herculine Barbin, Memoirs of a Hermaphrodite combines new poetic writing, a new musical score and visceral physical performance to tell a poignant story with universal resonance. Herculine s journey takes the audience from the bittersweet safety of a country nunnery, to the dark and seedy freakshows and peepshows of Paris.
