Join us for our social group for LGBTQ+ people aged over 50 in
Liverpool, which is run by LGBT Foundation’s Pride in Ageing programme.
For our November meeting we will be attending a performance of Raising
the Wreck: Revisited at Unity Theatre.
For centuries four women pirates have been lying on a wreck at the
bottom of the sea.
Grace O’Malley, Aku, Mary Read and Zoa have drifted through time
unperturbed by the progress of the modern age. Until 1985 when they were
visited by Jenny who took their stories into the 1980’s. In 2026 Jenny
falls through time again and lands on their long-forgotten shipwreck,
armed with nothing but a mobile phone and a head full of questions.
Blending history, mythology and contemporary politics with humour, music
and. Storytelling “Raising The Wreck – Revisited” is a bold re-imagining
of Sue Frumin’s pioneering play. Originally commissioned by Gay
Sweatshop Theatre Company the production was one of the first British
plays to feature a multi-racial cast of women and to place lesbian
stories.
Please note that 7.30pm is the start time of the show, and we will be
gathering in the foyer of the theatre 15 minutes before. Your ticket
booking with us includes a free ticket to see the performance with our
group, you do not need to make a separate booking with the theatre.
