Six women are backstage, getting ready to face a representative of the Nobel Prize Committee.
Each year, these six female scientists have been getting together over dinner to commiserate with each other for not having received the Nobel Prize, which was instead given to others - generally the men with whom they worked.
However, tonight will be different.
Instead of their annual dinner, the President of the World Feminist Organisation, the WFO, has arranged for these women to each be presented with a Nobel Prize in acknowledgement of their contributions to the world of science – at least, that is the expectation.

The Shaman is one woman’s journey to find herself following her traumatic life experiences.
In the 1970s, Diana is on board a ship from the UK to New Zealand. However, on the voyage she meets Bob, charming and attentive. who suggests that, instead of going on to New Zealand, she should get off the ship with him in Sydney.
Five years later and Diana is now a victim of domestic abuse. Bob alternates between physical violence (not seen on stage but implied), emotional and financial abuse and begging Diana to stay, promising he will change.
Diana’s neighbour, Nancy, suggests that they should go up to the cliffs overlooking the nearby beach, because a man in a long black coat is often up there meditating.
Diana meets this man and becomes his pupil. learning about life and death, and everything in between. Finally, Diana is able to accept that Bob is merely an hallucination, brought on by her guilt at having stabbed him to death.
She has served her time – both physically and mentally – and now she is free.
