5 Women Now & Then - Episode Three - Polly, Jem and Jeannie
Episode 3
Friday, 4 February, 2022
5 Women Now & Then Created during the Covid lockdowns, 5 Women Now & Then, is a brand-new, female-led, three-part audio drama that questions how much has really changed for women over the last 200 years. Beautifully told as a series of interwoven stories, a tapestry of rich narrative is juxtaposed with piano-driven bar songs, spoken word, cello composition, and evocative sound design. Originally conceived in 2019 as a stage play the evolution of the piece to audio was not only a practical necessity but is a profound statement in making the inaudible audible. 5 Women Now & Then gives flesh to the lives of women buried by the history books but framed against a contemporary lockdown. For the best listening experience we recommend the use of headphones. WARNING: Contains content some listeners may find distressing. Episode Three.
