Andrew Doherty presents a WIP of his new horror-comedy, Woman Lawyer.
Combining women, lawyers, ghosts, the plot of the Saw films, Most Haunted, Celebrity Most Haunted, and crucially Most Haunted Live, Woman Lawyer tells the story of Nicole Hereafter, an actress who had some success on the hit legal drama Woman Lawyer in the early 2000s. However, her time on the show was cut short due to a tragic accident which has plagued her over the years since. Now to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the show, she is putting on a screening of the unaired Halloween episode "I Breast My Case" in order to hopefully set right what went wrong.
The show is currently a taste of what the finished product will be. Doherty's previous show, Gay Witch Sex Cult, changed greatly over the WIP shows, and Woman Lawyer will be no different, so please don't be surprised if entire characters, plotlines, titles, performers and production companies are dramatically different by the time the finished product comes about. But with music, wigs, a montage to Changes by Taylor Swift, and high voltage cabling all to look forward to, you would be a fool to not come and see the show as it develops through the early stages.
