The setting: It is 1943 and your organization is hosting a meeting to promote “war work” for women. Hear a testimonial from Rosie Niemiec (historical interpreter Stacy Flora Roth), a housewife who decided to do her bit for the war effort (and surprise her husband) by taking a job as a welder in a shipyard. This intriguing session features a character monologue, a display of period artifacts and ephemera, a discussion of women’s participation on the Homefront, and an opportunity for the audience to share memories, memorabilia, and personal and family stories of the Second World War.
