Chorley Theatre to hold women’s right play Deeds Not Words

Written and directed by CADOS Artistic Director Mark Jones, Deeds Not Words is a dramatic play about the Suffragette movement in the early 20th Century, as well as modern-day stories which show there are still battles to be won.

Chorley Amateur Dramatic and Operatic Society were approached to create the play in 2018 to mark the centenary of women winning the right to vote in the UK, but the production was delayed by the Covid pandemic. Mark said: “The play tells the story of Emmeline Pankhurst who became a lead campaigner for the women’s fight to get the right to vote. She advocated ‘deeds’ not ‘words’ - direct action, to enable her and the women who followed her to get what they wanted.

The play entitled Deeds not Words will be held next month at Chorley Theatre and will focus on the century long fight for women's rights
