It's 1956, and Philip Larkin, one of England's most famous post-war writers, has just arrived in Hull as the University Librarian. Over the next thirty years, his life there will be dominated by three women.
In this funny and touching new play, we see behind the facade of 'the Bard of Humberside' and into his complex private life.
Larkin With Women premiered at the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough, in November 1999.
Meet 14 inspirational women who dared to dream. From historical world leaders to modern pioneers and international muses, hear the amazing life-stories of women around the world.
The story of Philip Larkin's long-term partner Monica Jones based on her never-before-seen letters to the poet.
A major work on two major British literary figures of the twentieth century.
