Spitfire Girls - Tickets Now On Sale!
CODA are back at Selsdon Hall with the heart-warming play Spitfire Girls by Katherine Senior. The play is inspired by the true stories of female pilots in the Air Transport Auxiliary (ATA) during World War II – these remarkable women who ferried planes across the country from factory, to maintenance depot and to airfield and playing a vital role in the Allied victory.
Spitfire Girls opens on New Year’s Eve 1959, at The Spitfire pub. Two sisters, Bett and Dotty, who served as ATA pilots during the war, reunite. As they reminisce, the play transports the audience back to 1943, when the sisters decided to escape their lives on their father’s pig farm and answer the call to join the war effort.
Having debuted in 2025, this show tells the extraordinary true stories of the women who dared to fly during WWII and the incredible bond that tied them together as they defied expectations. Funny and endearing, it is a story of strength, courage and loss. But above all else, hope.
Performances take place from 7:30pm on from Thursday 26th-Saturday 28th November plus a 2:30pm matinee on Saturday 29th and 4pm matinee on Sunday 29th November. Tickets are priced at £15.
