It’s 1942, and there are some new arrivals in the village. They’re turning heads and breaking hearts as the fine girls of the Women’s Land Army take to the hills.
Buff is a city girl dreaming of being ‘just like Vera Lynn’, while Biddy is a country girl who is ‘now’t but a hopeless romantic’. Join them on a journey of blisters, back-ache and banter as they learn all there is to know about working on the land.
This brand new show is the latest comedy two-hander from Badapple's resident writer as she celebrates the highs and lows of the wonderful women who helped keep Britain fed during World War II, set against a backdrop of glorious music of the age, as well as new tunes by songwriter Jez Lowe.
Although a fictional tale this play owes much to the reminiscences of a number of Land Army Girls who contributed their own personal stories to this exciting new comedy.
