Pursued By A Bear | Nothing On Earth

All Tickets £5

by Anna Reynolds
Directed by Rosamunde Hutt
Music by Helen Chadwick

An out-of-this world comedy inspired by female heroism, from the everyday to the extraordinary.

Rhea is the teacher terrified of travel. Dreading a school trip, her panic rises until she’s rescued by three pioneering women from adventure’s golden age.

This time-bending play weaves together the amazing stories of real women from Hertfordshire who fought for suffrage (Lady Constance Lytton), travelled the globe (Violet Cressy-Marcks) and performed breath-taking aerial feats (Dolly Shepherd).

Nothing on Earth is developed from the hugely popular Hertfordshire’s Hidden Heroines project. It celebrates generations of women who resolutely refuse to be put in a ‘box’.

Join us at the start of a creative journey, becoming the first to experience a new play being made in Hertfordshire before touring locally and nationally in 2020.
