| Synopsis: | Adapted from Sheila Stewart's novel, Ramlin Rose, this excellent one-woman show tells the tale of Rose, a boatwoman on the Oxford canal - once an important freight route from the Midlands to the South. Set between the end of the First World War and the end of the Second, when the canals briefly thrived before their final swansong in the 1950s, A Boat's Yer Whole World is a love story between Rose and her husband, Siah (Josiah), and also between her and the river that is both home and livelihood. Love sustains the couple and helps them to survive years of intense hardship and suffering on the open water - aptly, one of their boats is named The Perseverance. | |||||
