Library Theatre Company present an adaptation of DH Lawrence's
The Daughter-in-Law
The Lowry, Salford Quays
23rd February – 10th March |
Miner Luther Gascoigne and socially ambitious Minnie have just got married. A shocking revelation from Luther's past provokes a rich drama of sexual tension and class conflict all set during the bitter 1912 miners' strike. With its wonderfully authentic dialogue, The Daughter-in-Law confirms D.H. Lawrence, famous for his novels and poetry, as a first-class playwright too.
