Rachel Galvo's latest show, 'Shite Feminist', has become one of the most talked-about performances at this year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Staged at the Pleasance, the show delivers a sharp, unapologetic critique of contemporary feminism, leaving audiences both laughing and questioning their beliefs.
A Bold Take on Modern Feminism
Galvo doesn't hold back in her satirical exploration of feminist tropes, tackling everything from performative activism to corporate 'girlboss' culture. Her biting humour and fearless delivery have earned her both praise and criticism, making 'Shite Feminist' a must-see for those who enjoy provocative comedy.
Audience Reactions
While some viewers have hailed the show as refreshingly honest, others argue that Galvo's approach undermines genuine feminist progress. One attendee described it as 'a hilarious but uncomfortable mirror held up to modern activism', while another called it 'reductive and unnecessarily cynical'.
Why It Matters
Regardless of where you stand, 'Shite Feminist' is undeniably sparking important conversations. In an era where feminism is often commodified, Galvo's show forces audiences to confront uncomfortable truths—making it one of the most relevant acts at this year's Fringe.
