Podcast preview of the new stage production of Lucy Kirkwood's The Welkin,  with cast members Lucy Mabbitt (Sally Poppy)  and Sarah Perkins (Elizabeth (Lizzy) Luke).A murderer’s fate lies in the hands of 12 women.  Sally has committed the wickedest of crimes but her claims of pregnancy, perhaps, demand clemency. A panel of Suffolk matrons, pulled from their everyday into the machinations of 1760s justice, must assess if she’s telling the truth.Will she escape a hanging, be transported, or will the mob tear her to pieces? Village midwife, Lizzy might be all that stands in the way of Sally’s execution. Female wisdom and strange portents spin Kirkwood’s incendiary play into a darkly comic theatrical tapestry.The Welkin.
