Directed by Alix Reynolds (MFA Candidate) Foul-mouthed and brash, an unrefined group of young women toil in the Cattle Market slaughterhouses. But not everyone thinks this is an appropriate way for women to earn a living! The gutting sheds are closed down when a well-to-do lady decides to improve their lot in life by training them as maids. The ‘gut girls’ quickly realize that this newfound employment comes at a high price.

With sharp dialogue and dazzling humour, the historically-inspired Gut Girls cuts right to the heart of women’s struggle for emancipation.
