A woman’s fascination with the lives and works of feminist authors Mary Wollstonecraft and Mary Shelley leads her to re-examine love, loss, and friendship in her own life.

With the quirks and tropes of history repeating themselves, the lives of these two woman aid her in navigating the struggles of her own story.

This is a new one act play written by Paloma Freitas, produced for the first time by The Black Box Theatre Company.

The Black Box Theatre Company are a passionate compilation of actors, writers, directors, and theatre technicians continuously bringing new writing to stages across London. In 2019 the group debuted 'You Have Absolutely No Sense of Time' at the Camden Fringe Festival. More recently, their production of 'Speak of the Devil and he shall appear' received glowing audience reviews during its run at The Questors Theatre last year.

Playwright Paloma Freitas' past works include the short play 'Delights', at the Old Red Lion Theatre Pub in North London, and a monologue 'English Sea', performed at Bread And Roses, Clapham.
