After two highly successful runs at the White Bear Theatre, the acclaimed 11F revival of Sylvia Rayman's hard-hitting 'all-women play' Women of Twilight comes to the Pleasance for a limited run of 13 performances. First presented in 1951, filmed the following year yet neglected ever since, this blistering drama - in which unmarried mothers are ruthlessly exploited by an unscrupulous, baby-farming landlady - is just as powerful today.
Women of Twilight is directed by Jonathan Rigby and designed by Olivia Knight. The cast features Claire Louise Amias, Francesca Anderson, Christie Banks, Amy Comper, Elizabeth Donnelly, Virge Gilchrist, Ailsa Ilott,Sally Mortemore, Emma Reade-Davies, Vanessa Russell, and Emma Spearing.
Women of Twilight will run 14th-27th April 2014 with a preview performance on Monday 14th at 7:30 pm. The performance schedule will be Tues 15th and Wed 16th April, Thursday 17th-Saturday 19th and Tuesday 22nd-Saturday 26th at 7:30 pm and Sunday 20th and Sunday 27th at 6:00 pm.
