Synopsis:This three-act drama, set in 19th-century London, opens as young Alexis and Mary are sent by their father to the city in order to supplement the farm-family’s wages. In town, they meet Gisela, with whom they share a cramped apartment. Alexis follows Gisela into prostitution to pay the rent, while trying to protect her fragile sister Mary from the ugliness of the city. They later take in Hannah, who has run away from the brothel run by her mother, Mrs. Harcourt. The girls form three strands which gradually entwine themselves inextricably in each other’s futures.
