Three Women

I am a great event.

I am dying as I sit. I lose a dimension.

I undo her fingers like bandages: I go.

Through weeping anguishes and fragile silences, three delicately interwoven monologues question existence, the ache of belonging and delve into the shrouded, emotional experiences of birth, miscarriage and adoption.

Sylvia Plath’s sense of self is poetically split and torn between three experiences, three voices, three women.

With special permission by the Estate of Sylvia Plath and publishers Faber and Faber Ltd, Caged Birds Productions brings to stage an honest, poignant aching of the often silent journey of the beginning of life.
