THE BREAKTHROUGH ONE-WOMAN PLAY REDEFINING BRITISH COMEDY… SIT OR KNEEL is coming to The Other Palace for a limited run this October!
SIT OR KNEEL is a sharply observed, darkly funny coming-of-age story about identity, expectation, and finding your place in a world that wasn’t built for you. Margot is in her twenties, accidentally ordained, and leading a parish she doesn’t quite understand, while quietly unravelling behind the scenes.
Set in a village full of unsolicited advice and passive-aggressive casserole drops, SIT OR KNEEL is an ode to rural British life: its charm, its eccentricities, and the quiet pressure to appear perfectly fine at all times. It’s a play that digs into gender, grief, ambition and the bizarre theatre of everyday life — all with wit, warmth, and emotional bite.
Described as “the perfect amalgamation of Fleabag and The Vicar of Dibley”, this is the breakout debut from Mimi Nation-Dixon. After a sold-out, critically acclaimed Fringe run, it’s back — bigger, bolder, and better than ever.
