Georgina Lock is a scriptwriter, film-maker,
actress and independent scholar of theatre history, based in Suffolk and Spain.

Georgina writes and performs solo shows about historical women who overcame restrictions of gender to control their own destinies. Under-represented heroines, who made a difference to the lives of others, include Lady Mary Wortley Montagu (see Lady in a Veil) and one of many unknown anchoresses who chose to pray for their communities and live in lone austerity (see The Walled-Up Woman). Hannah Snell, the Female Soldier 1750  is about an eighteenth-century woman who disguised herself as a marine, fought in India and survived to perform on the London Stage. It premiered in October 2023 at the Army Museum.York. In January 2024 it played at the Gainsborough House in Suffolk, in at Snape Church, Snape, Suffolk and in September 2024 at the GreenRoom in Folkestone.

The next performance of Lady in a Veil  at Snape Church 3pm on Sunday 22nd September.

"A riveting performance.  Our members were enthralled."
Sue Ollier, Secretary of Richard III Society (on The Walled Up Woman).
