Three staged workshop performances of the new American musical Winghaven Park will take place next month in London.
During the tensions and uncertainties of World War 2 America, Hollywood movie star Vera Webster (Summer Strallen) returns to Vashon Island and her childhood home, Winghaven Park, during a national fundraising tour to sell war bonds to the public. Her three-day stay turns into a journey of self discovery as she navigates an estranged sister, buried family secrets and rekindles a long-lost love with her high school sweetheart.
100 seats at each performance of this major new musical will be available to the public. With every ticket priced at £22, you can be among the first to see this extraordinary musical on stage.
