Female of the Species at the Bridewell Theatre 7 June

Tower Theatre presents The Female of the Species, By Joanna Murray-Smith, at the Bridewell Theatre, in city of London, from 7 to 11 June 2011, directed by Martin Mulgrew.

Margot Mason is a feminist writer suffering from writer's block, and she can't meet the deadlines for her next book. Molly Rivers, a deranged former student of Margot's, arrives unexpectedly at her country home with a gun, and handcuffs Mason to her desk. (plot loosely inspired by a real-life incident in 2000, when author Germaine Greer was held at gunpoint in her own home by a disturbed student.)
