Heard of any of them? Neither had we. And we’re meant to be a group of feminists.
Unsung explores the untold stories of four pioneering and inspirational female figures from our past, asking why they, and hundreds like them, have been relegated to the footnotes.
They were bold. They caused riots. And it’s about time their stories were told.
Unsung Collective and Lisa Holdsworth (Midsomer Murders, Ackley Bridge, Call the Midwife) present a new play about the women who made – or ought to have made – British history. Unsung is supported using public funding by Arts Council England and the Fenton Arts Trust.
Unsung is at The King’s Head Theatre 14th – 15th April 2019. Full tour details can be found here.
