RUTHLESS
BY KATHERINE MORAN
Ruth Ellis: the last woman to be hanged in the UK.
A woman determined to live life on her own terms, which came at the ultimate price.
Today, when so many women still face violence and blame for their own survival, it is even more vital to explore Ruth's story.
Following a sold-out debut at the Old Town Hall, Hemel Hempstead, RUTHLESS: A NIGHT WITH RUTH ELLIS is in its next stages of development.
We are forging partnerships with domestic violence charities, seeking to contribute to meaningful change for women today, as well as justice for Ruth.
Ruthless: A Night With Ruth Ellis is not an attempt to excuse Ruth’s actions, but to understand them.
The audience is invited to experience Ruth’s world - her dreams, flaws & tenacity - in real time.
As the system continues to fail women today, Ruthless asks us - how far have we really come?
