| Annotation | The play begins with three women sewing in a setting that appears to be in a village in the 18th century. A new woman joins them and insists on the others making changes in what they are doing and following her directions. This part of the play appears to represent a peaceful, simply life being disrupted, but the play gradually grows darker. At the end, though, it takes a dramatic turn that undermines everything that has gone before. First performed at the Royal Court, London, November 10, 2016, directed by Stewart Laing. |
