As war shook their land, they took to the skies...

The real life but rarely acknowledged war-effort contribution of the women of the Air Transport Auxiliary (ATA) is joyously celebrated in this heartwarming new play from Tilted Wig. 

Paying tribute to the pioneering pilots who took to the skies during the Second World War to ferry warplanes between factories, maintenance units and front-line squadrons, the show has been developed and produced with support from the National Theatre’s Generate Programme.

Recommended ages 10+
