A SAMUEL FRENCH, LTD. TITLE

Women of Twilight

Full-Length Play, Drama  /  11w

Sylvia Rayman

A hard-hitting ‘all-women play’ in which unmarried
mothers are ruthlessly exploited by an unscrupulous, baby-farming
landlady. Neglected for over half a century, Rayman’s blistering drama
is a real find – and still relevant today.
