Workshop Theatre at the Fringe: Wrens

As always, a number of shows at this year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe have strong WT connections, and we’ll be following them all…



‘The big war’s ending, but the little wars keep on going.’ With VE Day imminent, seven Wrens contemplate a seemingly warless future. Yet, suddenly faced with their own personal war, will they stand together or splinter and fall apart?’

Tiny Teapot Theatre will be performing Wrens at:

Sweet Grassmarket: City. City 1, Apex City Hotel, 61 Grassmarket, Edinburgh EH1 2JF

Start Date : August 4, 2011
End Date : August 28, 2011
Time : 5:50 pm to6:50 pm

  • John KennedyPlease contact me asap re possible PR link up re Wrens show at Fringe. I contribute to on-line ‘Edinburgh Reporter’ and ‘Birmingham Live’ gig reviews.

    I want to review show (with mid 80s Edinburgh Aunt who joined Wrens when 18 during the War AND still has prodigious memories!)

    Also aim to chase-up possible TV/Radio cover. Need to move fast. Aunt knows about show but not these proposals yet. Interested?

    Yours,

  • Julia PirieHey Michael and friends!

    Hope the show goes really well. Was very excited to hear about it and TO see that the above have shown interest.
    My Mum was in the WRNS in WWII, stationed in Inverary, Scotland. There’s a little museum there in which there are some photos of her. She worked on decoding and so forth. She once had tea at the castle with theDuke of Argyll. They also had a visit from Winston Churchill. Her maiden name was Mary Lambros. She’s now 89 and lives in a home near us. I’ve told her about your show.
    BREAK A LEG!
