In the Pink gathers poems performed by the Raving Beauties, the feminist poetry collective that brought live verse into theatres, clubs, and late-80s cultural circuits.

The selections move between satire, erotic candour, political anger, and comic timing—written for the stage but retaining force on the page.

Published by The Women’s Press, the collection sits within a specific moment of British feminist publishing when it was irreverent, performance-driven, and unapologetically direct.

It carries the energy of spoken word; less workshop polish, more mic and room. A slim document of feminist performing culture rather than a canonical poetry volume, and stronger for it.
