Belgrade Theatre, Coventry
Runs from Monday, April 20 to Saturday, April 25. A performance event contemplating the hour of death, 'The Last Women' is a powerful interpretation of the stories of condemned women from a queen convicted of treason to an illiterate ribbon weaver convicted of murder. Combining the carnival of gallows humour, the drunken dizziness of a night club, the ritual of a last supper, and heartbreaking farewells, 'The Last Women' is both intimate and epic. Celebratory and defiant, bold, haunting and beautiful, 'The Last Women' is a daring confrontation with death staged in a specially reconfigured space, and offers you the choice of joining the women in their cells or witnessing the event from the safety of the crowd. 'The Last Women' will be performed at the Belgrade Theatre, Coventry, 20-25 April, 8pm; Weds and Sat matinee 2:45. |
