About This Event

Machinal is scheduled to run at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland in Glasgow on 26 October 2026. Tickets for the event are priced between £5 and £20.

‘How can that be? A great sin – a mortal sin – for which I must die and go to hell – but it made me free! One moment I was free!’ Helen Jones is lonely in her marriage and motherhood. Overwhelmed by society and the machinery of life, she commits a crime to escape it, ultimately leading to her downfall. Based on the 1920s true crime case of convicted murderer Ruth Snyder, sensationalised by the public press, Treadwell’s 1928 play explores one woman’s struggle to be heard amongst the noise of contemporary capitalist society.
