Library Theatre Company presents
The Daughter in Law
23rd February - 10th March 2012
For Sale
- By D.H. Lawrence
- Presented at The Lowry
- £12 - £19.50
Miner Luther Gascoigne and socially ambitious Minnie are newly wed. Luther’s mother disapproves; in her view Minnie’s pretensions make her an unsuitable match. A shocking revelation from Luther’s past provokes a rich drama of sexual tension and class conflict all set during the bitter 1912 miners’ strike.
With its wonderfully authentic dialogue and deep understanding of relationships, The Daughter-in-Law affirms DH Lawrence, famous for his novels and poetry, as a playwright of the front rank.

One of the very best, (and least celebrated) of 20th century English playwrights. The Daughter-In-Law is his masterpiece…this is true playwriting.
