Daughters Of Eve

The Crown Players Present Daughters Of Eve

A Drama by Tom Casling
Directed by Gillian Wright

Six women meet once a year at a remote cottage. Five of them went to school together and are now middle aged. The sixth is the daughter of one of the school friends who has now passed away.

As the play develops it begins to be clear that nowadays they meet often out of guilt and habit, rather than for enjoyment. One of them is their strength, their rock, but the other five are in different states of turmoil.

The six friends are a strange mixture of backgrounds and experiences. The self-imposed weekend exile turns into a near disaster as they are cut off because of a freak storm and to add to the dilemma one member of the group attempts suicide, another reveals a tragic secret, another struggles with a sexuality crisis and there is an unexpected arrival...
