A controversial 1912 classic: one of the first plays in modern British history to feature a female working-class protagonist.

It''s holiday week in the Lancashire town of Hindle, just before the First World War. Fanny Hawthorne, a spirited, determined mill girl, has just returned from a weekend in Blackpool with her friend Mary Hollins. At least that''s what she tells her parents. In fact, she''s been spending the weekend with Alan Jeffcote, a wealthy mill owner''s son who is engaged to someone else. When Fanny''s parents discover the truth, they set out to ensure that Alan will do the decentthing and marry her – only to discover that Fanny has her own ideas on the matter... One of the first plays to have a working class female protagonist, Hindle Wakes was hugely controversial at the time of its writing.
