Machinal

An expressionist masterpiece by Sophie Treadwell about a woman who resists the demands of a restrictive society.

The play tells the story of Helen Jones, a woman trapped in a loveless marriage and a world that demands her obedience. Inspired by a true-crime case from 1928, the production transforms her life into a visceral vision of modern existence. Directed by Finlay Glen, the performance embraces Treadwell’s expressionist style as the protagonist begins to resist the machinery of life.
