Event Short Description

New Canadian Play Honours British SOE Heroine Odette. Cast will hold Q and A post show.

Event Information

Presented by Tumbleweeds Theatre Society from Canada, the show combines live performance, shadow puppetry, and intimate storytelling to bring Odette’s extraordinary story to life — from her capture by the Gestapo to her courageous post-war efforts to honour those who didn’t return.
After surviving nearly two years in Nazi captivity and at Ravensbruck Concentration Camp, SOE agent Odette Sansom is unexpectedly freed by her captor, SS Commandant Fritz Suhren, who hopes to use her to negotiate his surrender. At the American front lines, Odette exposes him as a war criminal and hands him over to the Allies. Sitting in Suhren’s SS-issued convertible under the night sky, she convinces Captain Edward Bonner to let her stay outside a little longer, telling him the extraordinary story of her life—and how a ‘Little Green Leaf’ saved her in her darkest moment.
Q and A after performances.
Bosham Village Hall – 3rd Sept – 7pm
Tangmere Military Aviation Museum – 4th Sept – 7pm/5th Sept – 2pm
