Wrens
Thursday, Mar 27, 2014 - Sunday, Apr 13, 2014 at Clarence Brown Lab Theatre
By Anne V. McGravie
Directed by Tracey Copeland Halter
Inspired by the playwright’s own involvement with the British Women’s Royal Navy Service (WRNS) as a young woman in war-torn England.
In their cramped Orkney Islands barracks on the eve of VE Day, seven women confront the prospect of peace, which also means an end to their newfound wartime independence.
