THE YEARS

About the show

Five different actors bring one woman's personal and political story to life, set against the backdrop of a rapidly changing post-war Europe. From a child playing in the debris of the Second World War, to a student discovering parties and men's bodies, an activist fighting for the right to choose, a wife, a mother, a lover, and a grandmother — each moment captured like a photograph. A stage adaptation of Nobel Prize winner Annie Ernaux's critically acclaimed memoir The Years.
