Revolting Women was a short piece of devised theatre created for the Homegrown Festival at Battersea Arts Centre in 2017.

Devised collaboratively by five women, it was a polyphonic multimedia performance that used physical theatre, video projection, music and scripted performance to explore stories of gendered sexual violence and everyday misogyny.

In November 2017, it was revisited and updated to include elements inspired by the #MeToo movement, and it was subsequently performed again at Battersea Arts Centre.
