About
Lee Miller and her Rollieflex camera were witness to the events of WWII, the battles and the lives destroyed, ensuring that the horror will never be forgotten. Whilst recording the wartime events she captured womens' roles in image and word from fashion to the work of the WRNS, concentration camp victims to nurses and many more. Her story and that of the women she encountered is told through Miller's own images presented by her son Antony Penrose and Miller's words spoken by her granddaughter Ami Bouhassane.
Performance last 1 hour 20 minutes with an interval.
