Mrs Mantells tooth

About

Theatre Rotto brings to the stage the turbulent story of Gideon and Mary Ann Mantell – whose revelations astonished an explosive world of fossil identification and 19th century scientific discovery. The performance follows the puzzling first steps from quarry findings made by Mary Ann in Sussex to the 'monstrous' statues which were eventually erected at Crystal Palace in 1852. Mary Ann Mantell, whilst rearing a family in a house full of bones, and working alongside her husband, was one of a number of women instrumental in advancing the infant science of geology by illustration and saurian verification.
