Matchgirls Reading
Playlovers will be having a reading of Matchgirls on Sunday 21st July 3pm at Hackett Hall. We have the music of the show to listen to as well. Come along and enjoy a cuppa & read through. Just give Geoff Robinson a call on 0414 348 968 to register interest so we have an idea of numbers.
Synopsis
This is a true story about the first women strikers in England. Set in 1888, It is a story of the women who worked in a match making factory, where their job was to dip the heads of the matchsticks in Phosphorus. The phosphorus was a deadly chemical that used to attack the bones of the body but was first evident in the mouth where the girls used to get something called Phossy Jaw, which ate away the jaw bone.
It is a story of determination, equality & of course there is has to be a love element. Set in London the girls are helped by a journalist to get the working conditions improved.
There is a strong cockney style about the show. It is generally a happy show, but has a strong message to deliver.
We need Lots of Girls & Guys for this show. Come and have a listen.
