Ed Waugh is the writer of the play Wor Bella, about North East
women's football during WW1. Wor Bella toured north of the
region in March/April 2022 to much acclaim and will transfer to
London before the 1200-seat Newcastle Theatre Royal for three
performances in April 2024.
Ed will talk about these heroic working-class women who saved
the WW1 war effort and raised money for wartime charities. The Lionesses of today stand on the shoulders of these selfless
"munitionettes".
