“I am a remarkable woman - always was, though none of you seemed to think so.” May Morris steps out from the shadow of her father William Morris in an actor-musician odyssey from Isabella Javor. THREADS OF MAY weaves together live music and storytelling to stitch together the intricate life of the woman who designed some of the most iconic Arts and Crafts patterns. The play traverses her journey from her bohemian childhood, stepping up to continue her father’s legacy managing the embroidery department of Morris & Co, to her later years falling in love with her gardener Mary Lobb. A blend of original music and feminist history, THREADS OF MAY is a vivid tapestry of legacy, politics, and hidden queer love.
