Ohh sorry I let this drop!
I went to see handmaids tale at the English national opera
Cleverly done, some of the opera was a bit too much for me as I'm new to it all I think.
But there was a group of three women in a box dressed as handmaids and I felt sure they'd be mimsnetters

I thought it was fantastic, but a bit difficult to understand without the surtitles. I thought it was staged really well and it captured everything perfectly.

The Leeds women are good at protesting as Handmaids.
