Daughters of England @ The Maddermarket Theatre.

Daughters of England is an adaptation of the Virginia Woolf short story, “A Society.” It follows Poll, a young woman in the 1910s’, who can only gain access to her father’s will on one condition; to read every book in the London Library! Including all the copies of The Times in the basement! Though this is an impossible task, Poll embarks on her journey through literature, only to find that books aren’t all they’ve been made out to be, by the men in her life.

This play bites its thumb at Hamlet.
