Across The Square imagines what might have occurred in an encounter between these two sharply contrasting women from very different worlds.
Each in their own way, Lady Ottoline Morrell and Millicent Fawcett have left an indelible legacy on the our political and cultural landscape yet they have languished too long in the twilight of obscurity, overshadowed by others. In a show full of both laughter and drama, Across the Square seeks to shine a light on these immensely influential women.
Written by international award-winning writer, Non Vaughan-O’Hagan and directed by Alex Pearson, Across the Square had its premiere at the Bloomsbury Festival and a sell-out revival at London’s Jermyn Street Theatre.
Will these two extraordinary women find common ground?
Two differing world views are about to collide over a glass of sherry.
