The Welkin by Lucy Kirkwood is a new production from Questors (credit: The Questors Theatre).

About: It's 1759 and in the English countryside, a young woman faces a death sentence for a gruesome crime. Desperate to avoid execution, she claims to be pregnant.

This assertion leads to an extraordinary gathering of twelve women, pulled from their daily lives and tasked with deciding her fate.

In a world dominated by men, this rare moment of female authority is both disruptive and empowering.

From the author of Olivier Award winning play Chimerica, Lucy Kirkwood's The Welkin is a thrilling and witty exploration of power, social responsibility and the burden of women in a patriarchal society.

When: 1-9 November.
