The year is 1896, and Girton College Cambridge has been the first university to admit female students. The Girton girls study ferociously and match their male peers grade for grade. Yet, when the men graduate, the women leave with nothing but the stigma of being a ‘Blue-Stocking’ – an unnatural, educated woman. The play is set over a century ago, but it was written in 2012 and has a very modern feel to it. Blue Stockings is a romantic and humor filled production, yet also contains scenes of powerful and moving drama. It will be staged with period costumes and a conventional set, performed on the wonderful CCT stage.
Come and watch a play with marvelous acting performances, interesting characters and a story that builds to an exciting ending!
