Jennie Lee
Jennie Lee by Mikron Theatre Company
The extraordinary life of the radical MP you’ve never heard of…
In 1929, Jennie Lee left her coal-mining family in Scotland to become Westminster’s youngest MP – so young that, as a woman, she couldn’t even vote for herself.
Tenacious, bold and rebellious, Jennie cut her own path through history.
Jennie fought with her every breath for the betterment of all our lives. She believed that every person deserved their share of the fruits of the earth – for wages, health, and housing, and for art and education too.
