Join Queensgate Football Club as they advance to the final rounds of the Women’s FA Cup for the first time in the club’s history. Meet a group of players, united in their love for the game and for each other. But can this record-breaking team survive the challenges they face, both on and off the pitch? Do they have what it takes to go on and win?

In association with feminist arts organisation, Fractured Glass, Birmingham Rep, Good for a Girl – is a brand-new drama celebrating and exposing the real-life experiences of women in football.

Inspired by real life stories of the female footballing world writer and Associate Director Becky Deeks said:

“Good for a Girl is a deeply personal story inspired by my experiences as a female footballer and some incredible people who have been part of the research process. Women’s football has come so far, even since I began writing the play in 2019! However, the inequalities explored in this play remind us how much more there is to do. I hope this production not only celebrates the incredible strength of female athletes but also inspires change both on and off the pitch.”

The cast comprises of Saskia Davis, who is making her professional stage debut as Gabi, April Nerissa Hudson as Naomi and Molly Walker as Liv. Completing the cast is former England Youth player, now professional actor Elizabeth Hope playing Kim and Gina Jamieson as Courtney.
