“What Fresh Hell Is It?” – The UK Premiere of a Witty, Bittersweet Triumph

Step into the razor-sharp mind of the legendary Dorothy Parker in What Fresh Hell Is It?—a bold, one-woman theatrical experience that brings the iconic writer, poet, and critic to life.

Witty, wounded, and armed with a scotch, Parker revisits the triumphs and tragedies of her life with the same biting humor that made her a literary sensation. From the smoky salons of The Algonquin Round Table to the heartbreaks and societal battles she faced as a woman in the early 20th century, she lays it all bare—no cynicism spared, no past mistake ignored.

Written and directed by Glenn T. Griffin, this UK premiere peels back the layers of a woman whose sharp tongue drew crowds but kept love at bay. Through laughter, longing, and a splash of gin, What Fresh Hell Is It? is an unforgettable evening with one of history’s most brilliant and complicated women.

Come for the wit. Stay for the woman.
