Roma is a woman with a dark past and a troubled present. The Flannelettes, led by the women's refuge manager Brenda, are a group of enthusiastic singers formed to perform a turn at the karaoke for the Miners' Welfare in a Yorkshire town. When events conspire to throw Roma in the way of the women's refuge, she gets to know Brenda's niece Delie, a lovely lass in her twenties but with a mental age of ten. When Roma learns that Delie has a secret love, everyone is reminded that violence is always around the corner... This is a tough, contemporary story told with warmth, compassion and Tamla Motown music. World Premiere. Strong language and adult themes.| 26 Jul 12 to 10 Nov 12 | The Theatre By The Lake Keswick, Cumbria Performance Details => Venue archive |
