The Farmer’s Wife began with Helen Rebanks’ memoir, but the journey to our stage has involved many more voices, farmers, farming families, artists and theatre-makers.
Over the next few weeks, some of those people are joining us for a special series of post-show discussions.
It’s Press Night for The Farmer’s Wife!
Tonight we celebrate the brilliant cast, creatives, production team and everyone behind the scenes who has brought this world premiere from book, to script, to stage at Theatre by the Lake.
