Mr Wroe's Virgins

Adapted from Jane Rogers' novel, and inspired by actual events, Mr Wroe’s Virgins is set in Ashton-Under-Lyne in the 1830s.

Against a backdrop of a burgeoning industrial age, the story explores the lives of the several young women - chosen by religious leader, John Wroe, to assist him in bringing his prophecies to fruition - until accusations of indecency, and a subsequent trial, bring their world to a dramatic conclusion.
