Catharsis
written by Bob Hillis, directed by Emma Louise-Price
Izzy and Jenny, two strong fifty-something women meet to hatch a plan on how they are going to confront Martin, a similarly aged man that they haven't seen for six years.
As the subsequent meeting unfolds we discover if they have the right to confront him, the reason for the confrontation and why it has taken so long for it to happen. The fateful meeting is cathartic for one of the characters in particular. Catharsis is a gritty and gripping story of love, loss and betrayal.

OUR HISTORY
The Bread & Roses is an award-winning free house right in the heart of Clapham. Owned by The Battersea and Wandsworth Trade Union Council (BWTUC) and run by the Workers Beer Company, part of BWTUC Trading, it prides itself as a pub with a social consciousness.
The Bread & Roses is named in recognition of the struggle of workers around the globe for a better quality of life. The name is taken from a song written during a strike of women textile workers in Lawrence Massachusetts, USA in 1912. 27.000 women went out onto the streets and marched for eleven weeks to improve their working conditions. Their banners called for bread and roses. A poet among them, James Oppenheim, wrote the lyrics to what became the trademark song for women trade unionists around the world. It is still sung by delegates to conclude the ICTU Women's Conference.
