Silk - A New Stage Play by Ray Evans
📍 Memorial Hall
📅 June 25th – 27th 2026
What really happened the night a German bomber was downed on the 10th of May 1941, near Henley in Arden?
SILK is a powerful new play drawn from local memory and whispered history — a tapestry of voices from the women who were there or say they were. Through humour, contradiction, and quiet revelation, their stories begin to unravel a truth long buried beneath wartime fear, silence and intrigue.
Inspired by real events — including the crash near Fulford Hall in 1941 — SILK explores what happens when enemy lines blur, and humanity refuses to follow orders.
Expect:
- Haunting storytelling
- Sharp wit and village voices
- A mystery that won’t sit still
- And a final scene you won’t forget
Some stories are never finished. Some truths were never meant to be told.
Ray Evans - Author/Director for HADS
