SUMMARY:Geordie Gaol Girls - The Play
DESCRIPTION:Following Women’s Workshop’s involvement in the workshops that helped create its characters (ours is ‘Hilda Collins’)\, Geordie Gaol Girls the play will unearth the hidden herstories of the women and girls who lived and worked within the walls of Newcastle’s gaol. From fearless suffragettes who risked everything for equality to the last woman ever hanged in the city\, Geordie Gaol Girls brings to life the voices that history tried to silence. Were they criminals—or simply women of their time\, punished for stepping out of line? And do their spirits still linger in the shadows of the old site? This isn’t just a play; it’s a once-in-a-lifetime theatrical experience. For the first\, and perhaps only time\, these untold stories will be performed on the very ground where they unfolded\, exactly 100 years after the prison closed its doors. More info here \nWe have a small number of complimentary tickets available for the performance at 1pm on 22nd Oct. Please let us know asap if you would be interested in coming along.
