Скачать или смотреть Trailer for Emilia by Morgan Lloyd Malcolm at The Questors Theatre, Ealing

We are only as powerful as the stories we tell.

Emilia Bassano was a poet, a teacher, a revolutionary force.

She refused to bow her head, even when history tried to reduce her to nothing more than Shakespeare’s muse.

But what if the words we’ve worshipped for centuries were actually hers?

No more silence. Join her. Laugh with her, rage with her, rise with her.

An all-female cast tears open the past to set Emilia’s story blazing - her words, her truth, her time. At last.

Together, we reclaim our voices.
