In 1915, Mrs Barbour led 20,000 women in the rent strikes with bundles of washing, bread flour, saucepans and wooden spoons. 100 years later and an 87 year old woman sits alone in her dank tenement in Govan, reminiscing on a lifetime of grievances, battling her memories and reaching for an idea of a time which put all of us first. This new play by up-and-coming, award-winning playwright AJ Taudevin (Some Other Mother, Chalk Farm) incorporates workers songs, charting a personal history of sisterhood, solidarity and betrayal interwoven in a social history of women’s resistance in Glasgow.
lice’s mum is boracic, and she is wandering the aisles of Poundland looking for summer treats. Alice reaches out to grasp a white rabbit keyring and before she knows it she is on the golden escalator to Plunderland – A parallel universe where no one pays 50pence in the pound tax, and where everything costs the same – a million – but you don’t have to pay for it if you are rich. Travel with Alice and meet Milliedum, Milliedee, The King of Clubs, The Queen of Diamonds, The Fat Cat, The Mad Banker and all your other favourite characters you love to hate.
