15 Heroines by Various
Drawing inspiration from Ovid, fifteen leading female and non-binary British playwrights dramatise the lives of fifteen classical heroines in a series of new monologues for the twenty-first century.'A triumphant re-voicing of famous tales'
* Observer *'Compelling.. sometimes funny, often moving, this is a phenomenal collection of monologues'
* BritishTheatre.com *'Urgent, engaging and beautifully written... it works as individual segments, as themed collections, or as one full project'
* Broadway World *'What stands out above all else is the quality of the writing'
* Guardian *'Brilliant and hilarious... these heroines are resurrected with wit, imagination and verve'
* The Stage *'Revisionist and unapologetic, this new appraisal of Ovid’s work is very timely... it is the psychological insight that makes this so watchable. By taking ownership of their stories, these women speak for themselves'
* The Reviews Hub *'Ambitious and artfully entertaining, 15 Heroines refuses to allow these women to be relegated to the footnotes... the pleasure is that we have so seldom heard these versions before'
