This in-person storytelling experience takes visitors on an emotional journey through the stories of seven remarkable convict women who faced life’s hardships with resilience.

These women were often underestimated, belittled and forgotten. Seen by society as ‘notorious strumpets’ - when there was so much more to each and every woman.

Through these varied stories learn about how female convicts were treated by society, and how they sometimes managed to overcome prejudice and inequality to succeed - despite all odds.

Tour prices: (includes site entry and the audio experience).
