As part of the Redbridge Creates International Womens Week, Elaine Britten presents... ROSSETTI'S STUNNERS

‘One face looks out from all his canvases…

not as she is, but as she fills his dreams’

The famed Pre-Raphaelite painter, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, immortalised ordinary women as goddesses in art and called them: Stunners.

This is a new play: part theatre, part lecture, part riff on beauty, gender and class. Also inspired by Woodford born William Morris whose wife Jane was a leading muse.

Writer and performer Elaine Britten explores her own local story set against the story of these audacious Victorians, crafted with humour and carefully researched.
