Dear Cathy
written by John Brindley, directed by John Brindley and Georgia Emily Scott. Dear Cathy follows one woman’s struggle to confront the truth of infertility and what an out of the ordinary, brutal biology has imposed on her marriage, on her past life – and on every aspect of her future. An unflinching and unconventional look at the emotional toll of infertility and the often-unspoken mental health struggles that accompany it, this play explores grief, isolation, resilience, and the pressure to remain silent around deeply personal loss. Written and directed by John Brindley and co-directed by Georgia Emily Scott, performed by Amelia Sweetland, with an original music score by Polo Piatti.

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.
