"Meet the Moss girls - 'my lilies,' as their father calls them - three young women finding their way through life in working-class Liverpool just after World War I. Dutiful, devout Iris runs the household efficiently in place of their deceased mother. Wayward, dreamy May works as a maid but longs to act. And feisty, ambitious Ruby sells corsets to keep the family afloat. With their overbearing father and war-tormented brother, they struggle through poverty, passions, and profound disappointments - sustained always by the irrepressible spirit of family. Tough, sexy, funny, and heartbreaking, Lilies unsparingly depicts the often brutal realities of life in 1920's Britain, the bleak choices facing impoverished young women, and the fortifying power of love in its many forms. Starring Kerrie Hayes, Leanne Rowe, Catherine Tyldesley, Brian McCardie, Daniel Rigby, Scot Williams, Stephen Moyer, Jennifer Hennessy, and Iain McKee."--Container.
