Brave Women Who Wait
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant and thought-provoking theatrical production written by Mrs. F.G. Kimberley, first performed in Wolverhampton on November 29, 1915, and later at the Elephant and Castle in January 1916. This powerful play, which toured to the Grand Theatre in Luton on September 11, 1916, offers a glimpse into the lives of the brave women who worked in munitions factories during World War I. The image captures a scene from the play, with a well-dressed lady standing amidst a bustling munitions factory. The women, dressed in protective clothing and engrossed in their work, are busy producing ammunition. The lady, with a look of concern on her face, asks one of the women, "What are you making?" The woman's reply is stark and heart-wrenching: "Why, shells to help kill them as killed our loved ones yonder." The title "Brave Women Who Wait" refers to the women's courage in carrying out their work, despite the devastating consequences it would have. The play explores the emotional toll of the war on these women, who were often separated from their families and loved ones, and the sense of wait they endured as they worked towards a common goal. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the women during the war, and the role they played in shaping the course of history. It is a testament to their bravery, resilience, and the love they held for their country and their families, even as they were tasked with producing the very instruments of war. The play "Brave Women Who Wait" continues to resonate with audiences today, as a powerful reminder of the human cost of war and the strength and courage of those who endure in the face of adversity.
