Stiletto crazy after all these years...

Some of the donated stilettos           PIC: QUEENS THEATRE
Stilettos will be theatrically burned to mark a new series of plays touting a positive image of Essex at the Queen's Theatre in Hornchurch.The theatre is asking for donated stilettos to burn during Sadie Hasler's play Stiletto Beach, billed as "a love letter to Southend". 

The season also features So Here We Are by Luke Norris, which is also set in Southend and part of the theatre's Essex On Stage programme. So far the theatre has received more than one hundred pairs of stilettos — which should help the play right some burning injustices perpetuated by Essex Girl stereotypes.

  1. Hornchurch's Queen's Theatre is The LONDON Theatre Of The Year. It's in London, not Essex, and should leave such Essex based material to theatres actually based in the county.

  2. But it's spiritually Essex!
