SoloFest: One In...Never Out! by June Ballinger at Luna Stage

Once in...Never Out!
Written and performed by June Ballinger

Directed by Janice L. Goldberg
December 16th at 8pm

An 80-year-old British former codebreaker at Bletchley Park looks back on her life and all the secrets about her work and identity that she has held onto for 50 years. Will she ever be truly known by her children? How will she be remembered? Was her contribution worth the sacrifices?

Written and performed by June Ballinger, this piece is inspired by her own mother’s work at Bletchley Park during WWII. The story was created through memories, letters, and a diary discovered after her mother’s death in 2013.
