Six generations of women, their lives spanning 100 years from the final months of World War One to the present: through weaving together of monologue, dialogue, songs and physical theatre and prompted by small, intimate objects from their past, we are given glimpses into brief episodes of these women’s lives … episodes evoking joy, sorrow, love, loss and memory that articulate the ‘small histories’ of ordinary people.
