‘Not for Keeps’ – a local and personal story of adoption, as told by Dorchester Drama

Monica Hunt from Dorchester Drama called into the studio and told us about ‘Not for Keeps’ a powerful and personal piece of drama set between the 1940s and 1990s. Mary, whose husband is fighting in Borneo during the Second World War has an agonising decision to make. A temporary fling has left Mary pregnant – with the likely consequences of rejection by her husband and being shunned by society, will she keep the child?..

‘Not for Keeps’ will be performed at Dorchester Corn Exchange on 4th & 5th July. Tickets and more details here: dorchesterarts.org.uk
