Four lives. Four trials. Four executions. You be the judge.
Eliza Benwell. Mary McLaughlin. Margaret Galvin. Mary Sullivan. Four women. Four lives. Four crimes. Four deaths.
Each of these women followed a different path before arriving at the Cascades Female Factory. Each made their own choices in Hobart. But all met the same fate.
On this 90-minute immersive experience, step into the courtroom and uncover the harrowing stories of the four female convicts whose lives ended on the gallows in Van Diemen’s Land.
Were they ruthless criminals, or victims of an unforgiving system? As their trials unfold, you’ll delve into their crimes, the justice that condemned them, and the society that sealed their fate. At the end of the tour, the verdict is yours to deliver.
Guilty or not guilty? In the virtual courtroom, you be the judge.
