Sara Wesker – trade unionist, political activist and radical – led the “singing strikers of 1928” to improve the working conditions of female garment workers in London’s East End. But her love of the cause battled with the love of her life. Which would win? And was it all worth it?
A tale from a century ago but very much a play for today, this 5-star reviewed, OffFest nominated one woman play gives a vivid account of the life of a forgotten woman who should be revered as a working class heroine.
“Simply splendid….a must see show” Mark Aspen Reviews
“a real sense of history and culture” The Edinburgh Reporter
“Lottie Walker didn’t just play Sara Wesker, she became her,” FringeReview
