'Exploration about proud ladies'
Jupiter Artland founder and director Nicky Wilson mentioned: "These two women bring their power of observation and relentlessly confessional instincts to site their work in a most compelling medium themselves.
"This discuss is just not about ladies and disgrace, it is an exploration about shameful, proud ladies that transmute disgrace into observations that resonate with us all.
"Mendick does not shy away from confession and mess as she presents unflinching observations of the power of drink - it's fun and it's optimism alongside the messiness and regret that it also inflicts."
Kim McAleese, director of the Edinburgh Art Festival, mentioned: "We are thrilled to collaborate with Jupiter Artland on this amazing one-night event, with such a fantastic range of collaborators and performers and curated by active, important and exciting artists and arts workers."
