It’s 1983 and Tracey Thorn is in her dressing room backstage at The Lyceum, about to play a gig with her band the Marine Girls. She feels scared and lonely. She looks in the mirror and can’t stand it. She hates her hair.
The dressing room door is thrown open. In walks a tall woman in Lurex asking loudly if anyone has a lipstick she can borrow. Tracey watches. Tracey stares. Tracey thinks to herself, here is a woman who is not scared. Here is “self-belief in a mini-dress”.
