SUMMARY:Miss Nobodies
DESCRIPTION:Miss Nobodies is a funny\, uplifting play about a little ironmongers shop in a little Lancashire town and the larger-than-life women who pass through it from 1919 to the present day. \nMixing storytelling with sketches\, songs and poetry\, Ruth Cockburn and Keith Carter (the creative talent behind last year’s hilarious ‘Devilled Eggs’ show) take you through 100 years of retail therapy and stories; the talkie movies of the ‘20s and the video nasties of the 80’s\, the start of 50’s Skiffle and the birth of 90’s Britpop\, class struggles in the ‘60’s and racial tension in the ‘70’s. \nPlaying a host of characters\, from the tragic to the comical to the lyrical and the animal\, their stories\, sketches\, songs and verse\, (there’s even a prize-winning competition in the interval)\, will have you laughing\, crying and singing up to the present day. \nThis funny\, poignant and heart-warming story will resonate with all ages and will make you think about what the next 100 years will hold for us. Miss Nobodies was inspired by outreach done online and in the community of Great Harwood alongside research into local history and prominent figures of Lancashire. One such person is Ethel Carnie Holdsworth. A writer that worked in the mills in the early part of the last century. She is cited as the first working class\, female novelist in the UK and parts of her poetry are used throughout the play to punctuate the stories. The show mixes poetry\, storytelling and music\, to tell the story of a local shop spanning 100 years from 1919 to present day\, focusing on the women that have made up the shop’s history\, whilst also showing how the lives of women have changed over the last century. \nBlack Liver\, as heard on BBC Radio 4\, seen on BBC 1 and Sky TV have toured all over the world. They bring their unique style of theatre-making and comedy to connect to their audience and bring stories to life. \n\nNominated for best new show 2022 Buxton Fringe\n‘Iconic’ Forgotten Arts Fest\n‘Highly Recommended’ Buxton Fringe\n\nAudience Reactions\n‘Miss Nobodies – ordinary women\, living extraordinary lives and superbly told this evening.
