Fresh out of Exeter University, Nimble Troop brings you its debut production ‘Shoulder to Shoulder’, an original re-telling of the story of the British suffrage movement through the eyes of five women. Creating an episodic & punchy collage of these women’s lives, Nimble Troop challenges the preconception of a unified movement to give a voice to the women that history does not always relate. This devised piece, inspired by contemporary diary entries, speeches and lyrics from suffrage songs engages the audience through innovative multi-media, soundscaping and movement. ‘Shoulder to Shoulder’ creates a fresh take on a well-known narrative, highlighting that we all have a right to be heard, even though, sometimes, that might be hard to stomach.
