Lysa King is nineteen and angry. After spending a year away from her small town, experiencing a powerful uprising of her own political voice, and the protests of women all over the world, Lysa has returned to discover that revolution seems to be happening everywhere but home.

Her arrival coincides with the biggest weekend on the annual calendar, the War Weekender, a weekend-long celebration of the towns most prized citizens, the local footy team. Unable to stay silent, Lysa decides its time to ensure that her voice is heard, and armed with a flag, a manifesto, and the key to the footy clubs change rooms she plans to bring revolution about by any means necessary.

Inspired by Aristophanes Lysistrata, Christian lands us in the present with this hilarious, messy, and glitter-filled response to the power of women globally.
