theatre show war

Spitfire Girls, a play written by Katherine Senior, arrives at Cambridge Arts Theatre from 7 to 11 April as part of a second major UK tour.

Reuniting on New Year’s Eve, 1959, decades after they answered the call, two women separated by the war meet as the rain hammers down on the windows of The Spitfire pub and recall a time when female pioneers defied expectations
and soared through the skies.

Inspired by the extraordinary true stories of the women who dared to fly during WWII and the incredible bond that tied them together, it tells a heartwarming story of strength, courage and loss – but above all else, hope.
