IN ISOLATION MONOLOGUES by Rachel Dax
IN ISOLATION MONOLOGUES is a suite of Audio Dramas with Soundscape and Music, recounting the life stories of four British octogenarian women from very different backgrounds. Each monologue explores LGBT experiences, as well as women’s relationships to men and wider society. Frank and unflinching, In Isolation discusses love, sex, sexuality and gender in a way that both challenges and affirms.
