The Passing Out Parade

At its peak during WW2, the women’s branch of the British Army, known as the Auxiliary Territorial Service or ATS, boasted more than 200,000 recruits. In The Passing Out Parade, written by Anne Valery and set in 1944, we meet seven raw girls who have just signed up and follow their trials and tribulations at the hands of Joyce “blood-and-guts” Pickering. But can she turn the girls from “anguished amateurs” into “perfectly drilled faceless soldiers”?

Performances are on Thursday 26th, Friday 27th, and Saturday 28th November at 7.30pm in Testbourne Theatre.

To book tickets now, at £5 (£4 concessions), please call Claire on 01256 892514 or email her at info@wadsweb.org.uk. From 14th November, you can also buy them at Newbury Building Society and Whitchurch Library.
