Women & Theatre’s Prime Time series features dramatic monologues about women of retirement age. Developed from research conversations, they reflect the language and lives of ordinary people and put women’s stories, writing and performance centre-stage.
Comprising three monologues by three different playwrights, this funny, moving series reflects upon how women’s professional and personal lives have impacted on their current choices or lack of them and explores the deep-rooted gender issues that this stage of our lives often exposes. Each episode is followed by a discussion with the writer of the piece.
