A play by Christine Lindsay, inspired by her time working for the Scottish Prison Service at Cornton Vale. Arriving for a spell behind bars, where there are no secrets or boundaries, and carrying their life's baggage, a group of women tell their stories in a sometimes crazy, often poignant insight into their lives and the price they'll pay. Told in a chorus of words, rhyme and stand up comedy, the collective voice of the women is heard. Christine Lindsay joined the Scottish Prison Service in 1976 and spent the equivalent of two life sentences behind bars. Some of her time was spent at Cornton Vale Prison which inspired her to write this play.
