SPITFIRE GIRLS
By Katherine Senior

INSPIRED BY REMARKABLE TRUE EVENTS

“It’s built for us, isn’t it? The Spitfire. Built for women.”

New Year’s Eve, 1959.

Decades after answering the call, two women separated by the war meet again as the rain hammers down on the windows of The Spitfire pub.

As we hear their story, we’re transported back to a time when female pioneers defied expectations and soared through the skies.

Spitfire Girls is inspired by the extraordinary true stories of the women who dared to fly during WWII and the incredible bond that tied them together. 

Funny and heart-warming, this is an untold story of strength, courage and loss. But above all else, hope.

Recommended ages 10+.

Spitfire Girls was developed with the support of the National Theatre’s Generate programme and Arts Council England. 

This production contains themes of war.
