Fanciful Flock Theatre presents 'The London Mothers'
Three Women, Three Stories
Follow the experiences of young Mary and Doreen as they prepare to give birth 150 miles away from home against the backdrop of the Second World War. The two friends are evacuated to Willersley Castle, near Cromford, Derbyshire whilst friend Gladys remains in London. 4,000 mothers were evacuated to Willersley at this time. Join the three friends as they navigate difficult emotions and decisions.
The London Mothers is a heart-warming and fun story of the power of female friendship.
