It’s 1968 and she wakes up in her terraced home on a uniform street in Essex: she sighs at her husband, gets the kids to school, and at the end of the day has dinner on the family table. Matching tales are unfolding in homes along the streets, centred on the women she knows from the factory where she upholsters seats for Ford cars, produced in the Dagenham plant. But it’s all about to change… Made in Dagenham is the story of a woman’s bid to change the world. Based on a true story, Rita leads the women of the factory out onto the picket lines, asking for equal rights for equal pay. Through a whirlwind of music, she takes us on a journey towards gender equality that still continues today. Initial Design Ideas Initial Ideas Silhouette outlines of women in blue ford factory wear.
