A gripping historical drama charting one woman's dazzling
trajectory from model to lover to artist, to a tragic figure in her
own right. London, 1849. Lizzie Siddal is plucked from the
obscurity of a bonnet shop to model for the Pre-Raphaelite
Brotherhood - an intoxicating group of young painters bent on
revolutionising the Victorian art world. Inspired by their passion
and ambition, she throws herself headlong into their lives and
their art, nearly dying in the creation of Millais' Ophelia. The
painting is a triumph. But Lizzie wants more and dares to dream of
being an artist herself. Jeremy Green's play Lizzie Siddal
premiered at the Arcola Theatre, London, in November 2013.
