About the Play:

Centuries after their deaths, a mother and her daughters reunite for the first time to come to terms with their wounds, their writing, and their reverberations through history…

Mary’s Daughters tells the story of Mary Wollstonecraft, the 18th Century
intellectual radical, and mother of Western feminism, along with her two daughters:
the forgotten-by- history, illegitimate love-child Fanny Imlay, and the infinitely
more famous, author of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley.
This feminist ghost story plunges the audience into a fluid, poetic, whirlwind tour
through the lives, legacies, and times of these three incredible women.
Shaped and misshapen by each other, they swap stories and memories, each
intercutting and challenging the narrative offered by another. We hear the tireless
writings of a genius out of her time, two sisters trying to reconcile the emotional
wounds only families can create, and the birth of an iconic monster on the shores of
lake Geneva.
This play, written by Kaya Bucholc, in collaboration with Will Wallace, is a rallying cry for a world that centres radical kindness above all things
