Product Description
Two plays of haunting lyricism by one of Scotland's most dynamic playwrights.
Bondagers, winner of the LWT Plays on Stage Award in 1990, draws out the shadowy figures of women exploited as cheap agricultural labor in the Border country of the last century, as their voices echo across the fields in a powerful chorus.
In The Straw Chair, set in the first half of the eighteenth century, seventeen-year-old Isabel and her minister husband arrive on the remote island of Hirta (St. Kilda). Their encounter with the island's inhabitants, and especially the disturbing Rachel of Grange, will change their lives forever.
"She has the ability to make words not only sing but define character as well ... Her wonderful ear for Scottish cadence allows us to enter fully into the world she creates."—Time Out
