Zusammenfassung:
First performed at Edinburgh's Traverse Theatre in 1996, 'All Over Lovely' is a two-character play, which frames a furious debate about politicising feminism and sexuality and darts between the intellectual and the deeply personal. Two women who grew up together meet before a funeral. One of them maintains defiantly that lipstick and a Porsche is not a betrayal of feminism; the other's anarchist principles have somehow turned into an organic fruit and vegetable company who supply to Sainsbury's. Their conversation - sometimes vicious, sometimes comic, sometimes loving - reveals a relationship composed of childhood jealousies, adolescent sexual awakening, politicised lesbianism and feminist compromise.
