_MY LAST DUCHESS

A FILM BY THE FACTION

Commissioned by The Lowry as part of the #LoveLowry programme, and filmed in Salford, The Faction have reimagined and revitalised a solo show from our repertoire, originally produced in 2016 at New Diorama Theatre.

MY LAST DUCHESS, adapted by Jessica Siân from Robert Browning’s 19th Century poem, explores one woman’s powerful response to an extraordinary and contemptible level of control. Starring ensemble member Amelia Donkor as Duchess and directed by our joint Artistic Director Rachel Valentine Smith.

Content warning: this may be triggering for individuals who have experience of coercive relationships and victims of domestic abuse.
