Britain's What's On Event Guide
WPC1 at Queens Park Arts Centre and Limelight Theatre
Written by Dario Knight
Directed by Lilly Connors
In 1945, Olive Kemp became WPC1 – the first woman police constable in Buckinghamshire. She quickly made the news thanks to her accomplishments and commendations… but the story the press told of her career isn’t quite the truth.
Now living in retirement, Olive finds herself looking back at the landmarks in her career, and the legacy of what it meant to be WPC1.
Based on true local history, this new one-act play is produced by QPAC’s award-winning in-house storytelling company Unbound.
'WPC1' is performed as part of this year's Buckinghamshire History Festival - a month-long celebration of our county's fantastic heritage. Visit histfestbucks.co.uk/ for more information.
