Over The Top 2014-16

Salisbury 1917: aspiring young journalist Dorothy Lawrence returns to spend the summer with her wealthy guardian. She is suffering from a nervous complaint and is harbouring secrets that she is not allowed to tell.

With two performers, dark humour and an orginal score, this show explores the explosive personality at the heart of this extraordinary story of one woman's journey to the Western Front.

Based on detailed original research and a year-long process of audience development, this show brought a hidden piece of Wiltshire history back to life in it's centenary year.
