In this week which marks the 90th Anniversary of the Armistice, it’s both exciting and sobering to look back at such a cataclysmic period in our history – at a time when the world was changed forever. Megan is left alone with her baby and a broken plough, when her husband goes off to fight in the Great War. Protected only by the rugged landscape surrounding her isolated cottage in the heart of the South Wales’ valleys she is shocked when a desperate stranger breaks in, but sees an opportunity which can benefit them both. They find an unusual solution to explain his presence at the farm, but become drawn to one another – no-one could possibly foresee the difficulties that unfold when her husband returns from the Front a bitter and damaged man. The Other Woman is a powerful piece of theatre about the resilience of the human spirit in a world gone mad and how far people will go to survive through the harshest of times. Hijinx Theatre is one of Wales’ leading small scale theatre companies, with over twenty seven years experience of creating high quality production which are accessible, entertaining and challenging for small communities throughout Wales and England.
