Loughborough Left Unity presents the Red Ladder Theatre Company production of:

Wrong ‘un:  a suffragette’s story

Thursday 11 September 7:30pm

John Storer House, Wards End, Loughborough

A new one-woman suffragette musical written by Boff Whalley and directed by Justin Audibert.

February 1918, and after several decades of protest and four years of bloody war Parliament is poised to grant what the suffragettes have demanded and fought for – votes for all women. After years of direct action, arrest, imprisonment and force-feeding, it seems
their time has come.

Wrong ‘Un tells of the adventures of Annie Wilde, a Lancashire mill-girl galvanised by a rousing mixture of injustice, conviction, self-doubt and fear on her journey from schoolroom to prison cell and beyond in a musical drama that draws on class, privilege, hope and disappointment in wartime England.
