Who Do They Think They Are?

Funny, heartfelt and gloriously nostalgic, Who Do They Think They Are? is a life-affirming celebration of friendship, love, and belonging. Set against the soundtrack of The Spice Girls, this clever, moving play proves Girl Power is alive and well in 2025!

Written, produced and directed by award-winning Sussex playwright, Liz Tait, the story dances between laugh-out-loud moments and heart-hurting truths, taking us on a journey through loneliness, loyalty, and the fierce pull of female friendship.

The Spice Girls’ music isn’t just background, it’s the heartbeat of the show. From belly laughs to tears, the audience is taken on a ride that feels as familiar as it is fresh.

The cast: Kate Peltzer Dunn, Helen Rogers, Sophie Dearlove, and Sally Best radiate warmth and authenticity, pulling us straight into their world. Their timing, chemistry and sheer energy make it impossible not to root for every character, flaws and all. You believe in their bonds, and you feel their struggles.

The staging is smart, the pace never falters, and the emotional beats land beautifully. That balance is no small feat, and the company pulls it off with confidence and heart.

This is a show that will resonate with anyone who’s ever tried to figure out where they belong, or who’s found strength in friendship when family ties fray.

Who Do They Think They Are is funny, heartwarming and bold, and a great reminder friendship never goes out of style!

A five-star triumph.
