SILK – A Story Buried in War, Memory… and Truth

πŸ“ Memorial Hall
πŸ“… June 25th – 27th (All performances begin at 19:30)

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 β€” 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 β€” including the crash near Fulford Hall in 1941 β€” 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

🎟️ Tickets available now – don’t miss this extraordinary local production.

Some stories are never finished. Some truths were never meant to be told.
