About this ebook
Henrietta from Belfast and Elspeth from Dublin are unlikely comrades. The Suffragette movement binds them together, but as the question of Home Rule divides Ireland, will national politics tear them apart?
A play from the author of Stones in his Pockets, first staged at the Tricycle Theatre in 2010 as part of the Women, Power and Politics season.
'touchingly explores the way Belfast suffragettes in 1914 found their cause overtaken by the issue of home rule' - Guardian
'an acidic, cleverly detailed scene of feminist conflict' - Whatsonstage.com
