Event information

Blue Stockings is the engaging, spirited and shocking story of four young women fighting for their right to a university education in a world that assumed women belong at home. First produced professionally at Shakespeare's Globe in 2013, and a sell-out success, it is now regularly performed throughout the UK and beyond, and widely studied by GCSE drama pupils.

The year is 1896, Girton College, Cambridge is the first residential college in Britain to admit women. Tess Moffat and her fellow first years are determined to win the right to graduate. But little do the anticipate the hurdles in their way: the distraction of love, the cruelty of the class divides or the strength of the opposition, who will do anything to stop them. The play follows them over one tumultuous academic year, in their fight to change the future of education.

Doors open for drinks 6.30pm, Starts 7pm
Running time approximately 160 minutes including an interval.
Refreshments available.
Proceeds to College charities.
