Adapted from the poems of Carol Ann Duffy and performed by Linda Marlowe.
Directed by Di Sherlock.

A new stage version of the acclaimed poetry collection by Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy, imagining the wives’ perspective of famous men through the ages.

From Mrs Faust and Frau Freud to Queen Kong and Mrs Midas, this delightful show slices through history and myth, whilst also casting an astute glance over the modern world. Laced with dark humour and acerbic wit, this passionate exposé will enthral lovers of Duffy’s poems and newcomers alike.

Linda Marlowe has enjoyed great acclaim for her previous solo work including Berkoff’s Women, which toured internationally and played West End seasons.

“In Di Sherlock’s witty, fleet-footed production, beautifully designed with minimalist projections and graphics, Marlowe lets rip with her trademark searing energy and grace. Not to be missed.”  HHHHH Whatsonstage

“The combination of her consummate skill and Duffy's potent words deliver a rich and rollicking ride through the dark and dangerous aspects of womankind.”  4 STARS - The Scotsman
