Singer-songwriter Hannah Rose Platt brings Fragile Creatures to the Hunterian Museum
Fragile Creatures spotlights the systemic mistreatment of women in the name of medicine.
Embark on an unmissable journey through history, where science, superstition and myth collide. From 19th-century Parisian ‘hysteria’ to the glowing Radium Girls of the 1920s, Hannah Rose Platt illuminates the shocking fight for women’s bodily autonomy. With gripping stories like Anne Greene’s miraculous survival of execution, and the trailblazing Edinburgh Seven; Platt exposes the ongoing battle for women’s health and equality. This powerful show uncovers the enduring gender health gap and celebrates the unyielding spirit of women throughout the ages
