Marys Seacole
by Jackie Sibblies Drury
Synopsis
Born in 1805 Jamaica, Mary Seacole is determined to live an extraordinary life.
As she travels across oceans and centuries, through a Jamaican hospital, a Crimean battlefront, a contemporary nursing home and everywhere in between, Mary moves through life with Herculean fortitude.
But as her brazen spirit meets historical reality, Mary’s world explodes, splitting, multiplying and redefining her narrative.
Based on the life of the famous nurse and entrepreneur, Marys Seacole is an examination of what it means to be a woman paid to care.
