Iron – Play Reading 🎭

Tuesday 17 November 2026 | 7.30pm | ADC Clubhouse

A mother. A daughter. Fifteen years of silence.

Join us for a play reading of Iron, a gripping and emotionally powerful drama by acclaimed Scottish playwright Rona Munro.

Set within the confines of a women's prison, Iron explores the complex and fractured relationship between a mother and daughter who have been separated for fifteen years.

When Josie visits her mother, Fay, for the first time in fifteen years, she is searching for answers about her past and the woman she barely knows. But as their relationship begins to unfold, long-buried memories, painful truths and unanswered questions come to the surface.

A compelling exploration of family, identity, memory and the lasting consequences of the past, Iron challenges us to consider how well we can ever truly know those closest to us.

Could This Be Our Next Production?

We're currently considering Iron for Abingdon Drama Club's Spring 2027 production slot, and this play reading is an opportunity for members to discover the script, explore its characters and get a feel for the story.

Whether you're interested in performing, getting involved behind the scenes or simply enjoy discovering new plays, we'd love you to come along.

Everyone is welcome!

You don't need to prepare anything in advance or have any previous experience of play readings. Come along, take part in reading if you'd like, or simply sit back, listen and enjoy discovering this powerful piece of theatre.
