Little Gem is often funny, sometimes sad and definitely a bit different. Here’s what Elaine Murphy, it’s author, said:
”…as an actress I rarely recognised any of the women portrayed on stage in front of me.
I work part-time in a women’s health organisation in Dublin. Little Gem grew from there. It’s a mishmash of all the women I’ve met over the years: hardworking, not particularly rich or poor, ignored by the Celtic Tiger. The recession probably won’t make much difference to them either. You know, women like us, getting on with it”
Chester Little Theatre’s production will be at Davenham Theatre on 26 and 27 April
