The tape was recorded at Newhaven Boys’ Club and at Real Time Studio Billingshurst. Cover photo by Susy Taylor.

Digital reproduction of the cover of Spare Rib, and the review of Siren’s show ‘From the Divine’. The reviewer, Liz Horsfield, writes that Lily is far more interested in Ruby [or}“is it me being a lesbian that makes me think so?” No matter how ‘out’ Siren was as a company, it perhaps wasn’t always obvious to the audience or reviewers.

The play opened at the Drill Hall in London for 2 weeks in 1985 and was sold out every night. It returned to the Drill Hall in January 1986,. Manny describes Pulp as "a feminist play par excellence, brilliantly acted, refreshing, hilariously entertaining".

This shows a preview of “From the Divine’ which was performed at The Millfield House Arts Centre in Edmonton, London. Ticket prices were shown as £1.75 full price or £1.15 concessionary fare.

The preview has an interview with Jane Boston who played Magda. Salvadori describes the play as "a homage to Fifties B-movies with ladykillers, Mafia plots, and McCarthy conspiracies. But it's also a parody, poking fun at the femme fatale image and the clean cut freshness of stars like Doris Day."

The review was written after a performance at the Old Bull Centre, Barnet. The article is headlined "Wickedly Clever", and Leeb describes Siren Theatre Company as a "committed, courageous, refreshingly honest, and highly versatile trio".

The review was written after a performance at Hoxton Hall, London. The writer has endless praise for Siren, concluding that "the show exemplifies female humour as its sharpest - acidic and biting enough to be felt, but never allowed to become cynical or had-bitten. As a group, Siren are a lively and seemingly endless source of talent, completely self-contained as actresses, singers, writers and musicians."
