Storytelling, Historical
Fragile Creatures
Hannah Rose Platt
An unmissable journey through history, where science, superstition and myth collide. From 19th-century Parisian hysteria to the Radium Girls of the 1920s and the sedative ads of the 1950s, Hannah Rose Platt illuminates the shocking fight for women’s bodily autonomy. With gripping stories like Anne Greene’s miraculous survival of execution and the trailblazing Edinburgh Seven – performed at the Surgeons' Hall where these women made history – Platt exposes the ongoing battle for women’s health and equality. This powerful show uncovers the enduring gender health gap and celebrates the unyielding spirit of women throughout the ages.
