About this show
Shatter Resistant is a darkly comic one-woman show exploring the frustrations of modern life. Thirty-year-old Cassie is having a tough time of it lately; she’s just lost her job to an AI chatbot and her life is imploding from every angle. Cassie is forced on an odyssey of self-discovery and begins to question why she puts up with crappy jobs, terrible dates and psycho flatmates. Why can’t she say no? Knock after knock, the cracks begin to show. Maybe Cassie won’t be able to keep her positive mental attitude after all.
