Rose (2021x2)

Air date: Feb 28, 2021

Critically acclaimed revival of Martin Sherman's one-woman play. Dame Maureen Lipman is Rose, offering an intimate account of the 20th century, and the ultimate triumph of humanity. Rose is a Jewish woman who grows up in a Russian village in the early 20th century. Travelling around the world, Rose finds herself in different communities, all tolerating Judaistic influences at varying levels. A moving reminder of some of the harrowing events that shaped the century, it remains sadly relevant today as racial tensions escalate, and allegations of antisemitism are rife.
