BWW Review: STITCHERS, Jermyn Street Theatre
Lady Anne Tree thought she had a brilliant idea to help convicts. After seeing what the prisoners went through every day firsthand as a visitor, she decided that she would teach them needlecraft, a way to occupy the mind and to set aside a small amount of money through the sale of the artworks. Based on a true story and debuting as an inspiring play by Esther Freud, Stitchers is an extraordinarily crafted piece of theatre.
