Persistent and Nasty

The Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2022 series Elaine chats with director Nell Bailey about How to Build a Wax Figure. We discuss everything form age-gap relationships to queer love to the lack of visibility for lesbian and bisexuals on stage and screen HOW TO BUILD A WAX FIGURE Girl meets anatomical wax sculptor. Anatomical wax sculptor meets girl. They fall in love. Or something like that. Bea's older neighbour was her first love, her first cigarette, her first prosthetic eye. When Bea is invited to the Wellcome Collection to speak about her expertise making glass eyes, she finds herself unable to untie Margot from all that she does. As she tries to unpack her mentor's effect on her work, Bea must dissect for herself what love really looks like.
