CauseWay: The Story of the Alloway Suffragettes

Victoria Bianchi, David Overend (Artist)

School of Literatures, Languages and Cultures

Research output: Non-textual form › Performance

Abstract

Part play and part guided tour, CauseWay tells the story of two suffragettes who cycled from Glasgow to Alloway in 1914 intent on blowing up Burns Cottage. Weaving the words of Robert Burns with performance, storytelling and live music, the performance questions the links between the work of Burns and the suffragettes’ cause, whilst also exploring women’s rights across the world today.
