Victoria

Work:: Victoria (S02137067658)

1936 - Victoria, a minister's daughter, stands under a tree, lights a cigarette and dreams of emigration. 1974 - a helicopter crashes on the hill and Victoria, a young American geologist, emerges from the wreckage. Alive. 1996 - Victoria, daughter of local tycoon, makes a bonfire of money and watches it burn. Are they three women or are they one woman? Victoria tells the extraordinary story of three generations of a Highland community and a landed estate - and all the major themes of Scotland in the twentieth century. It was commissioned and produced by the Royal Shakespeare Company in 2000 but has never before been seen in Scotland.
