GAZE at Northern Stage

Spanning time from the 1890s until now, GAZE is a play which follows two women on their journeys to discovering their identities. Alice Guy Blach, the first real-life female filmmaker, is desperate for artistic license as her film career is burgeoning in the late 19th century, but faces countless barriers and betrayal. Rose, a modern day film student, is grappling with her mental health in her battle to find a sense of purpose in her life.Although worlds and centuries apart, together these women rebel against the difficulties that women have always come against; through their love of film they fight to access the power, the autonomy and the creative freedom that we all deserve.
