WANTED

@ Queen’s Hall Arts Centre, Hexham

WANTED explores the stories of 5  extraordinary ordinary women who  share a passion for standing up for  what is right! 

‘We have to respond to what is happening . The only other option is to ignore it’ 

WANTED is a new play that employs powerful story telling, spoken word, movement and music and features an  array of historical figures; Irena Sendler,  who rescued more than 2,500 children  from the Warsaw ghetto during the Nazi occupation; Olive Morris, British Black Panther and avid activist for women and squatters’ rights; Phoolan Devi, the fearsome Bandit Queen,  and a woman way ahead of her time, Dr James Barry.

A drama littered with humour, honesty and heart, WANTED is written and performed by Tonia Daley-Campbell, Therese Collins and Pamela Cole-Hudson.

In Celebration & Recognition of Women’s History Month 2020.
