Abstract

Butch Jackie wants a holiday, so four women set off to the island of Lesbos. However a lost suitcase, along with a white knuckle ride on the resort's banana boat not only put one woman's back out but results in the women having a major fallout. Set against the backdrop of adversity 'A Twist of Lemon' highlights the courage, strength and humility of young lesbians and lesbians living in the North East and gives audiences a rare opportunity to witness the stories of a minority that, in the main part, are invisible to the rest of society. Like heterosexuals they fall in and out of love, experience the trials and tribulations of bringing up children, but their lives bear the imprint of a world where they, and their children, experience prejudice and discrimination. It takes time for change, but how slow does this clock have to tick? Open Clasp say it's time to wind it up.
