The performance includes a ‘Hot Seating’ session, in which the audience is encouraged to question and
challenge the characters whilst still ‘in role’ – this is a well-proven tool for bringing new insights.
Recommended viewing for Magistrates, Police, Clergy, GPs, Health Visitors, Social Workers and any
other professional who knows at least four women!
One in four women will experience some form of domestic abuse
in their lifetime – either you, or someone you know, has personal
experience of domestic violence.
Love me ‘til it Hurts is a unique play that exposes the hidden face
of domestic violence and brings a new level of understanding
to all who see it.
Specially researched and written by Cascade, Love me ‘til it Hurts
focuses on one woman’s experience of domestic violence, and on
her desperate attempt to bring the situation to the attention of her GP.
Although a work of fiction, the play allows us to experience in
a very real way the isolation, danger and emotional turmoil that
domestic violence inevitably creates. It also allows us to learn;
clarifying the deeper issues of this all too common, but little
understood phenomenon.
