About
Loosely based on the real-life 1927 case of Ruth Snyder, who murdered her husband to be with her lover, Treadwell works this true story into a powerful drama about female oppression and the soul-sapping effect of the rat-race. A woman is pushed to breaking point by the restrictions placed upon her. It’s intense, but also peppered with dry wit and lacerating sarcasm. Treadwell’s expressionistic masterpiece is not asking her audience to consider whether she is wrong for committing murder, but to consider whether, in the claustrophobic wasteland of patriarchal society, she had any other choice.
Directed by Mike Truman, it features performances from Kirsty Turner, Roland Boorman, Simon Fox, Raymond Tongue, Marilynne Sharpin, Tricia Pape, Sandy Truman, Trish Richings, Josie Hobbs, Katie Clammer, Dan Williams, Barbara Spagnoli and Ann Allen.
