It takes Fran nearly a lifetime to work out why the slurs thrown at her in the schoolyard never quite sound right.
Fran Mulcahy is an Ipswich based performer who is aging disgracefully, a spoken word performer, feminist writer and poet. Her first stage work was at age 10 when she performed the angel Gabrielle in the school pageant. Before retiring she had a career as a doctor, and she is currently involved in educating health professionals and medical students about the gender diverse community. She’s soon to be touring a new one woman show, so be sure to look her up.
